  • KG Eco Solution has secured supply contracts with three of South Korea's four major oil refiners for high-quality marine biofuel.
  • The company will begin expanding its biofuel supply to refiners in August, following a contract for hundreds of tons of biofuel.
  • This achievement, recognized for its technological prowess and quality, allows KG Eco Solution to increase its focus on higher-value refiner-grade products.

KG Eco Solution has successfully entered the supply chain for South Korea's major oil refiners, securing contracts with three of the country's top four companies for high-quality marine biofuel. The company announced on the 28th that it recently signed a deal for hundreds of tons of biofuel with a third major refiner, set for delivery in July and August.

This breakthrough signifies a major step for KG Eco Solution, as it validates their technological capabilities and product quality against the stringent standards of the oil industry. The company attributes this success to its recently established research and development division, which has enhanced its raw material processing, production processes, and quality control systems.

Moving forward, KG Eco Solution plans to strategically increase the proportion of refiner-grade products, which offer higher added value compared to biofuel for power generation. This shift aims to establish a stable revenue base and capitalize on the growing demand for sustainable marine fuels.
