AdBlue Diesel Exhaust Fluid
AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid that’s added to diesel exhausts to help reduce harmful exhaust emissions (NOx). It turns harmful pollutants into gases that do less damage to the environment. It’s made up of special chemicals such as Urea and water and is stored in a separate tank in your vehicle. When adding AdBlue to your vehicle, it is usually topped up via a blue filler cap located either next to your fuel filler, in the boot or under the bonnet. It’s extremely important that AdBlue is never added to the fuel tank of your vehicle or irreparable damage will occur.

AdBlue FAQs
-
What is AdBlue, and why is it necessary for my truck?
AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid that is used in modern diesel engines to reduce harmful emissions. It is injected into the exhaust system, where it helps convert nitrogen oxides into harmless nitrogen and water vapor. This helps your truck comply with environmental standards.
-
How much AdBlue does my vehicle need?
The right AdBlue quantity depends on the size of your fleet and how often you need to refill. For smaller operations, our 10-litre or 20-litre options may be sufficient, while larger fleets or long-haul operations might prefer bulk quantities like the 210-litre or even 1000-litre IBC options.
-
Can I buy AdBlue in bulk for my fleet?
Yes, we offer bulk purchases of AdBlue in larger quantities, including 210-litre and 1000-litre options. These are ideal for large fleets requiring regular refills. If you're managing a fleet, you might also be interested in our AdBlue spill kits to handle any potential leaks during refills.
-
Is there free delivery available for AdBlue diesel exhaust fluid?
Yes, we offer free delivery on orders over £50.00 (Ex VAT), including AdBlue diesel exhaust fluid. Delivery is available for both small and large orders, and we also provide fast van delivery in some areas. Check out our shipping policy for more details.
-
How should I store AdBlue to ensure its efficiency?
AdBlue should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. It’s also essential to keep it in a container that is clean and sealed to prevent contamination. For safe handling and storage, we recommend using products like spill kits, which help with any accidental spills during use.
-
Can I use AdBlue in my trailer as well as my truck?
Yes, AdBlue is compatible with both trucks and trailers that have SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) systems installed.
-
How long does AdBlue last?
There is no exact length that AdBlue should last as this depends on your vehicle. The average consumption of AdBlue is between 4-6% per 100l of diesel. This translates to approximately 2.5 to 4l of AdBlue per 100 miles.
-
What is the cheapest way to buy AdBlue?
Buying AdBlue in bulk can cut costs hugely. Purchasing our 1000l IBC is the most cost effective method when it comes to AdBlue. This quantity also comes in a IBC, making it robust, stackable and re-usable.
