About Us
A history in European Shipping
Greener Saving™ was scientifically developed for use in the fuel-intensive shipping industry. It was this heritage that gave rise to our company name, Greener Shipping.As European shipping companies saw the huge fuel and cost savings that Greener Saving™ provides, demand escalated.
There are now over 250 shipping organisations throughout the world using Greener Saving™ to reduce their fuel costs.
Greener Saving™ for the UK market
Yet, as Greener Saving™ improves fuel efficiency in any combustion engine – including generators, HGVs and locomotives - its money saving potential reaches beyond shipping.For this reason, Greener Saving™ was introduced to the UK, where fuel costs are high. Since its introduction, road transport companies in particular are benefiting from the cost savings provided by Greener Saving™.
“The cost of fuel seems to be continually rising in the UK, which has a huge effect on the profitability of hauliers or any organisation that runs a large fleet of vehicles. As Greener Saving™ is proven to reduce fuel consumption in like-for-like circumstances, companies will start to save money immediately. What’s more, the higher the fuel costs, the greater the potential savings will be,” said UK operations director, Tom Fraser.
Guaranteed savings
Several factors affect a vehicle’s fuel consumption while on the road. High winds, heavy loads and even different driving styles can increase or decrease fuel consumption.Yet, no matter what the conditions, Greener Saving™ increases fuel economy by an average of 7%. In other words, a truck carrying a full load, travelling uphill into head winds would use, on average, 7% less fuel than the same truck with the same load travelling under the same weather conditions but without Greener Saving™ in its tank.
These results, which can equate to significant cost savings, have been proven under laboratory conditions.
Why Greener Saving™ is different
The science behind our pioneering fuel saving product is based on heat recovery.Many fuel additives on the market are simply detergents that clean the fuel system but do nothing to change the combustion characteristics of the fuel or the fuel chamber itself.
This is where Greener Saving™ differs. Although it cleans the fuel system and reduces wear and tear, leading to increased engine life, Greener Saving’s active compounds do much more.
How Greener Saving™ works
• Greener Saving™ is added to the fuel by dosing the bunker (or if required, directly into the fuel tank)• The fuel carries Greener Saving™ into the combustion chamber, where it has the following effects:
o Greener Saving™ coats the metal surfaces of the cylinder wall, piston face and fire deck with a film that inhibits heat transfer
o This creates a higher combustion temperature, increasing air expansion, which drives the piston with greater power
o The Greener Saving™ film also creates a polished surface effect, allowing more even distribution of the fuel
o Heat acts on Greener Saving™’s active ingredients causing a heat-generating catalytic reaction that further improves the burn
• The result is a 30-40% increase in expansion within the cylinder, with an equal amount of fuel – meaning less fuel is required to achieve the same power
Greener Saving™ also promotes engine longevity by reducing the build-up of harmful deposits that can soak up fuel and reduce performance.
Financial and environmental savings
As Greener Saving™ reduces harmful emissions including CO2, CO, NOx and hydrocarbons, you’ll also be doing your bit for the environment.By using Greener Saving™ you’ll be well-placed to meet imminent emissions legislation.
