Neemba, a prominent CAT dealer across West Africa, has recently entered into a distributor agreement with FuelActive, a UK-based company renowned for its innovative fuel pick-up systems. This partnership aims to introduce cutting-edge technology to optimize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions in heavy machinery across the region.
Revolutionizing Fuel Pick-Up Systems
FuelActive’s revolutionary fuel pick-up system operates on the principle of extracting fuel from the top of the tank, ensuring cleaner fuel intake and safeguarding sensitive engine components. Unlike traditional systems that draw from the bottom where contaminants accumulate, FuelActive’s approach promises a significant improvement in fuel economy, with potential reductions in CO2 emissions by 3-5%.
Successful Trials and Exclusive Agreement
Following successful trials on CAT 777s in collaboration with a West African customer, Neemba has signed an exclusive five-year distribution deal with FuelActive. With over 100,000 data points gathered during the trial period, Neemba is confident in the system’s capabilities to enhance performance across its territories.
