Diesel EN 590 – 10 PPM Ultra-Low Sulphur Diesel (ULSD)
Overview
Diesel EN 590 (10 PPM) is a high-quality ultra-low sulphur diesel fuel formulated to meet the European standard EN 590:2013. With a sulphur content of only 10 parts per million (ppm), it is designed for use in modern diesel engines equipped with advanced emission control systems, such as diesel particulate filters (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems.
This premium-grade diesel offers enhanced performance, reduced emissions, and compliance with environmental regulations across Europe, Asia, and other global markets.
