COMPANY PROFILE

needs of contractors. That institutional knowledge is invaluable—we understand the pressures construction firms face because we’ve been working with them through every market cycle.” This experience has proven crucial in building trust with customers. In an industry where downtime can cost thousands of pounds per hour, Certas Energy has established itself as a partner that understands the critical nature of fuel supply. Distinction in the construction and demolition industries Within the construction industry, demolition presents unique challenges that demand specialised fuel solutions. Certas Energy has built a formidable reputation in this high-pressure sector over the past decade, supporting some of the UK’s most complex demolition projects. Demolition requires machines that operate consistently at peak power, often in challenging environments where refuelling access is restricted. The financial implications of machine downtime during critical demolition phases can be severe, with schedule delays cascading through entire project timelines. “Demolition contractors operate in a different reality compared to general construction,” notes Peter. “Their machinery is pushed to maximum capacity for extended periods. Fuel quality is non-negotiable, and delivery windows are often tight and inflexible. We’ve tailored our service model specifically to address these requirements.” This specialisation has paid dividends. Since 2015, Certas Energy has increased its market share in the demolition sector by also being one of the largest suppliers of HVO. The sector is demanding a sustainable alternative to standard diesel and HVO is perfect for the sector. A drop in fuel with no need for modification.
