Our production sites based in Cloppenburg, Kaufungen and Cologne operate in shifts. They process typical raw materials to produce biodiesel. We pay great attention to the feedstock used, which mainly consist of residual and waste materials according to the biofuel sustainability regulation. This helps us produce biodiesel that only requires a minimum of fresh vegetable oils.
We use the raw materials we use to produce our sustainable and climate-friendly biodiesel in accordance with DIN EN 14214. In addition to the production of biodiesel, we also produce glycerins of various qualities.
The continuous monitoring of the entire production chain is carried out by our company laboratory and we thereby ensure the consistently high quality of our products. Qualified employees continuously check all process-relevant parameters for product quality and compliance with the standards.

Our biodiesel production facility based in Cloppenburg is a multi-feedstock production plant processing vegetable oils, animal fats and waste edible fats from the catering industry. This site is located in the industrial area of Cloppenburg, which has a direct access to the national B72 motorway.
It is very easy to get to Cloppenburg due to excellent transport connections. The national A1 (“Hansalinie”) motorway runs east (exit 63). And it is only a 15-minute drive to reach the A29.
The national B69 motorway runs from the Cloppenburg exit to Diepholz. The B72 links Cloppenburg to the North Sea coast (“Norddeich”). The B213 links Delmenhorst via Cloppenburg to the Netherlands. Cloppenburg is the crossing of the B72 and the B213. These two roads join to become a bypass similar to a well-developed motorway.
The western terminus of the four-lane bypass in Cloppenburg uniting the B72 and B213 becomes the B68 running south (“Quakenbrück/Osnabrück”).
