Green innovation in fuel treatment
Between industrial performance and environmental responsibility, a Nyon-based company is leading the way
For over forty years, Aderco has been developing fuel treatment solutions that combine operational performance and environmental sustainability. Specializing in 100% plant-based additives, Aderco is now a global leader, particularly in the maritime, mining and energy sectors.
Based in Nyon since 2014, Aderco International has established itself as a strategic partner in the face of the growing challenges of the energy transition: fluctuating fuel quality, market fragmentation, stricter environmental regulations and complex operating conditions. Thanks to its plant-based products, certified by independent bodies (SGS, Bureau Veritas, Intertek), the company optimizes combustion, reduces consumption and significantly lowers pollutant emissions.
Its solutions, which are effective on all fuels (HFO, VLSFO, MGO, biofuels), offer an immediate return on investment. Aderco enable its customers to maintain the performance of their equipment, secure their operations and achieve sustainable savings. Completely free of solvents, metals or toxic products, these innovative formulations are easy to transport and use, without the need for specific dosing equipment.
Every year, more than 40 billion liters of fuel are treated with Aderco additives. The impact is considerable: a 3-5% reduction in consumption, less maintenance and up to 8.5 tonnes of COâ‚‚ avoided per liter used. The company is thus making a concrete contribution to the decarbonization of its customers' industrial operations around the world.
Beyond technological innovation, Aderco affirms a responsible corporate vision. In 2024, it joined the community of B Corp-certified companies, an international recognition that validates its social, environmental and ethical commitment. This distinction is part of a strong corporate culture, where 50% of employees and management positions are held by women.
Its actions extend beyond the local level. The company supports international initiatives such as Mercy Ships, plants 10,000 trees each year, invests in the fight against plastic pollution and participates in the rehabilitation of coral reefs. Its ESG strategy is based on four pillars: social inclusion, carbon footprint reduction, product innovation and ecosystem preservation.
Also present in Belgium, the United Kingdom and Singapore, Aderco acts as a driver of global change from its base in Switzerland. It supports companies in the industrial, transport and energy sectors in moving towards more responsible fuel management without compromising on performance.
