ADERCO COMMITS TO INDUSTRIAL SECTOR WITH NEW INVESTMENT IN THE UK

Industry has a strong champion in Aderco, one of the world’s leading fuel treatment specialist companies. Building upon its recent appointment of a UK managing director, Aderco’s new operational base here is dedicated to serving industrial sectors in the UK as well as in Ireland, Africa, Middle East, Central America, USA and the Caribbean. It will also serve as a reporting line for the group’s worldwide network of distributorships.

Peter Stevenson leads Aderco Ltd from their new offices in Hampshire with additional staffing levels to provide a best-in-class service. Peter Stevenson joined Aderco from Simplex-Turbulo earlier this year and is now beginning the next phase of the planned company strategy.

Peter Stevenson said, “This is an exciting time for Aderco, whose proven fuel treatments deliver cost savings and efficiency gains that are in tune with today’s concerns and resonate with customers. Aderco has an outstanding commitment to innovation and we are continuously improving our solutions to enable petroleum-powered industries to meet today and tomorrow’s challenges. Over the past 35 years Aderco has earned the trust of large scale fuel users with a strong track record of saving costs, improving operational reliability and reducing emissions. We’ve hit the ground running and I’m delighted to be working with such a dynamic team.”

Olivier Baiwir, Aderco International CEO, said, “Peter’s broad depth and experience across the industries that are key to Aderco is making a difference and he adds a valuable perspective to our management team. His expertise, especially in leading technology initiatives at the enterprise level, has already shown to be extremely valuable. The UK undoubtedly remains a key strategic location and we couldn’t have a better team in place to support our customers and realise the potential for growth here as well as internationally.”

Aderco enables fuel oil-fired operations to run more cost effectively, smoothly and more sustainably through advanced fuel treatments. The company develops, manufactures and distributes specialised solutions, including fuel conditioners and lubricity improvers, for the marine/maritime, mining, power generation and transportation sectors.
