Our Story

For over 45 years, Aderco has been pioneering sustainable fuel-treatment technology.
Founded in Canada and now operating globally, we began with a bold idea to make fuel work better, cleaner and longer for every operator, everywhere.

From the start, every step of Aderco’s journey has been an adventure driven by innovation and the determination to challenge convention. That same spirit continues to guide us as we explore new ways to enhance fuel performance and minimize environmental impact across various industries.

We are more than a supplier; we are a partner in helping industries transition towards cleaner, more responsible energy use.

We Are Pioneers

Over 40 years ago, while improving fuel efficiency for North American icebreakers, we discovered a unique plant molecule with exceptional properties. That breakthrough sparked a journey of innovation that continues today.

We Are Bold

With confidence in this technology, we developed fuel-treatment solutions that deliver simple answers to complex fuel challenges. Our approach remains focused on performance and sustainability.

We Are Dedicated

Through years of testing and refinement, we have improved the efficiency of our solutions. By perfecting processes and logistics, we deliver agile, flexible support to serve our customers better.

We Are Inspired

By challenging convention and taking risks, we have transformed a conservative industry. Our drive to do things differently continues to shape the future of fuel treatment.

We Are Innovators

By developing new applications and uncovering more benefits in our formula, we help clients move towards sustainability and energy transition with cost savings and optimising operations.

We Are Visionaries

By adapting and delivering sustainable solutions to industries such as mining, power generation and transport, we help them meet the challenges of tomorrow.

We Are Conscious

We understand the needs of our clients and future generations. Every innovation and every solution is a step towards a cleaner, more responsible energy future.

We Are Aderco

Fueling innovation for the next generations.

Sustainability & Impact

Driving positive change through responsible innovation.

At Aderco, sustainability is part of who we are, not a project, but a promise. As a Certified B Corporation, we integrate environmental and social responsibility into every level of our operations, products, and partnerships. Our approach is built on four key pillars that guide how we create long-term, measurable impact.

Aderco Technology

Smart science. Real-world performance.

What are the benefits of using a vegetal-organic fuel additive?

Aderco’s surfactant-based technology works through a physical reaction, not a chemical one. Acting directly within the fuel, it disperses asphaltenes, stabilises blends, and improves lubricity ensuring a cleaner, more efficient combustion process without changing the fuel’s chemical properties, specifications, or engine hardware.

The result is reduced emissions, improved reliability, and enhanced performance across all operating conditions.

Our R&D team continuously refines and tests each formulation to ensure compatibility with today’s fuels and tomorrow’s energy transition from traditional bunkers to emerging biofuels.

In every drop, performance meets purpose.

Certifications & Partners
