Lifecycle LF100 biofuel

LF100 is our patented biofuel that can be used directly for power generation applications – in fact, we use it to power all the generators for our state-of-the-art biofuels plant.

To create LF100, we use a unique multi-stage filtration and extended warm settling process. The finished product is a fuel that can be used to power generators creating electricity. Our processing plant also has the capability to create feedstocks for other fuels like HVO and Sustainable Aviation Fuel.

Biodiesel & HVO

Our sustainable biofuel feedstock goes on to become a range of biofuels, including biodiesel and HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil).

Both biodiesel and HVO are helping to transform power generation and transport across the world, in a huge range of different applications. Used to replace conventional diesel, they offer significantly reduced carbon emissions and provide a more environmentally friendly power source for a wide variety of vehicles and machinery.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel

We produce a specialist feedstock for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) – an essential part of cutting aviation emissions around the world.

Increasing SAF supplies is a real priority in the UK, thanks to the upcoming SAF mandates, which legally require an increasing blend of SAF in jet fuel, starting at 2% in 2025 and rising to 10% by 2030. By supplying this essential raw material, we are enabling the aviation industry to meet these critical targets and drive down emissions. 

Cutting edge facilities​

Our state-of-the-art biofuel processing plant in Wednesbury, West Midlands, can produce 100 million litres of biofuel every single year. The high efficiency ovens are powered by our own LF100 fuel.

A day in the life with one of our drivers
“The best part of my day is chatting with customers—whether it’s a quick catch-up or helping a new café get started, it’s always something different. No two days are ever the same. It’s also great knowing that what we do makes a real difference—helping businesses run smoothly while supporting sustainability by recycling used oil the right way.”
