HVO – hydrotreated vegetable oil

The renewable diesel alternative

Hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) is an advanced biofuel that is growing in popularity in Switzerland and other countries as a sustainable alternative to conventional diesel fuel. The HVO authorised in Switzerland is produced exclusively from plant waste. This innovative product is therefore CO2-neutral and does not compete with food and animal feed. 

HVO has a better environmental footprint, and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It is CO2-neutral and free of sulfur and aromatic compounds.
