Fuel and Handling Quality Specifications and Standards
Our products conform to the highest current industry and government specifications and standards.
EN14214
This standard was proposed by the European Union's EU CEN (European
Committee on Standardization), in collaboration with automotive,
oil, and biodiesel industries in the member nations, and this defines
the minimum requirements on the quality of biodiesels. This standard
has since become the guideline for the standardization activities
conducted by other countries with regards to biodiesel.

ASTM D6751
The standards and test procedures developed by the American Society
for Testing and Materials for FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Esters) fuels
at 100% concentrations. Biodiesel that is meant for transport has
to meet these requirements.

BQ 9000
Program developed by the National Biodiesel Board (NBB) that includes detailed protocols on the storage, sampling, testing, blending, shipping, distribution, and other fuel management practices necessary for ensuring the quality of biodiesel.
