Benefits

Billions of litres of fuel are stored all over the UK at
numerous commercial sites. This fuel has a value of
millions of pounds and is therefore extremely vulnerable
to theft. It can be stolen from outside the organisation
or more shockingly and more commonly, from within the
organisation.
Since 1st April 2022 many businesses are no longer able to
use rebated fuel, known as red diesel or marked gas oil,
for their operations and so the stored fuel now appears
identical to that bought for personal use and puts stocks
of white diesel at a higher risk of theft.
Exocet® Diesel Defender is a liquid blue dye that will
colour white diesel to produce a green fuel and act as a
deterrent to thieves.

Usage

To demonstrate importance of operational
investment on site
To demonstrate that fuel use is being closely
monitored and can be traced
If there is a fear or suspicion of theft by
external persons or internal staff
With each fuel delivery

Application

Typical applications are white diesel for use in construction equipment, cooling or heating units in road and rail transport, airport vehicles, forklift trucks, electricity generation and heating for commercial premises to deter theft of fuel and prevent significant financial loss of operational investment.
