Offering the Most Comprehensive Fuel Analysis Services in Ireland
Our state-of-the-art laboratory ensures fast, efficient, and independent testing of all petrochemical products for quality and contamination. If you're concerned about water infiltration, bacterial growth, or fuel adulteration, we offer precise diesel analysis to safeguard your equipment and ensure compliance with industry regulations.




Advanced Fuel Testing for Quality and Contaminants
Fuel quality is essential for optimal engine performance and longevity. Our fuel analysis services detect impurities such as water, sulphur, and microbial contamination that can lead to costly damage. We use advanced equipment to assess fuel integrity, helping businesses and individuals maintain high-performance standards for their fuel-dependent machinery.
Accutrace S10 Detection & Compliance Testing
Since April 1, 2015, Irish and UK Customs require rebated fuel in agricultural and construction sectors to contain Accutrace S10, a molecular marker resistant to conventional laundering methods. Our testing services can accurately detect this marker, ensuring compliance and preventing the use of illegally traded diesel. If Accutrace S10 is found in road diesel, it indicates an illicit product that voids warranties and may lead to prosecution by Customs & Excise.
Diesel Analysis
Our diesel analysis services ensure the quality and safety of your fuel, reducing the risk of injector pump damage caused by water contamination or cross-product mixing.
