About our firm
Fuel 44 embraces the “cradle to cradle” philosophy, meaning we pride ourselves in being able to take a waste stream, that would otherwise be disposed of, and turn this into a commercially viable product which prevents the waste from negatively impacting the environment. We provide removal certificates for all waste oils we collect or that are delivered to us, we in turn refine these into heating fuels for a variety of industries at our plant situated in Woodstock.
We have become known for our responsible collections and refining processes which has led to a reliable supply from waste generators and to a growing number of satisfied clients. We are an initiator of all projects that will not only help protect the environment from waste oil contamination but also contribute to the reduction of the carbon footprint for anyone who has dealings with us. We engage all employees, customers and suppliers on all aspects of recycling and offer assistance where possible.
