We are now refueling our internal fleet with Neste MY Renewable Diesel™, also known as HVO 100. Depending on manufacturer approval, this fuel can be used in diesel vehicles without conversion and is compatible with the existing filling station infrastructure. It is a synthetic high-performance fuel that is produced from renewable raw materials such as used cooking oils.
By using renewable diesel, greenhouse gas emissions can be reduced by up to 90 % compared to fossil diesel. In addition, the fuel burns much cleaner and leaves considerably less impurities in the engine.
Our fleet comprises 56 forklift trucks, 4 trucks and some construction machinery, with which we consumed 580,000 liters of conventional diesel in 2023. By replacing it, we will save around 1700 tons of CO2 per year in the future.
By converting our fleet to HVO, we are sending out a clear signal that our combustion engines can already make a significant contribution to reducing emissions if they run on the right fuel. HVO represents a sustainable alternative that must go far beyond a temporary solution. We have always taken the view that the problem is not the combustion engine itself, but the fossil fuel. And it looks like the EU is now also changing its thinking in this direction.
Even though HVO 100 is currently still around €0.25 more expensive than conventional diesel, we believe that these additional costs are justifiable in terms of climate protection. Eisenwerk Brühl is involved in various development projects to replace fossil fuels in the production process with climate-friendly substitutes that can be used in a technically sensible and economical way.
TOOL-FUEL Services GmbH offers synthetic fuel solutions for the measurable reduction of vehicle fleet emissions. Its core competence lies in particular in the sale and distribution of high-quality HVO in its pure form. Specializing in the creation of fuel supply concepts, TOOL-FUEL Services manages the procurement, storage and transport of sustainable fuels via its own storage locations in Germany. Together with the ISCC certification, the conditions are in place to trace the selection and allocation of raw materials down to the individual deliveries and thus demonstrate complete transparency with regard to the origin and quality of the fuel. TOOL-FUEL Services has been a Neste brand partner since 2022 and is therefore a certified dealer for Neste MY Renewable Diesel.
Eisenwerk Brühl has been manufacturing sophisticated cast iron workpieces for almost 100 years. Its best-known products include engine blocks made of gray cast iron for well-known manufacturers and vehicle types all over the world. They form the heart of up to 4 million cars a year – making the company a global leader in the passenger car sector. Flexible casting systems and fully automated core production centers have made the company a sought-after specialist for large series production for many years. The small series segment is also reliably served – customer orders and small series for various applications of medium-sized customers are cast to complement the product portfolio.
