From
the very first demonstration, Graham Kenward of South East Forestry and Tree
Services was sold on the health and safety benefits of Aspen Fuel.
More
than a decade on, the firm still swears by AspenAlkylate fuel for their suite of two-stroke equipment, delivering clean and
convenient power to projects in confined spaces.
Founded by Graham in 1997, South
East Forestry and Tree Services undertake the full breadth of tree surgery
services for domestic and commercial customers across Surrey and Sussex.
Powering
much of that operation for the last 10 years has been Aspen Fuel. Graham takes
up the story, “I learned about the product through a friend and arranged to
have a demonstration of it. All I could say at the time was wow!”
“It’s certainly not right, but as
an arborist you almost just get used to getting home at the end of the day with
bloodshot eyes and the smell of petrol over your clothes – particularly if
you’ve been working in confined spaces. As soon as we started to use Aspen in
our 2-stroke equipment, that all stopped immediately.” He continues, “Not only
that but the shelf life of it is incredible. Depending on workload we might
have equipment that’ll sit in the shed for two or three years untouched. If
it’s got Aspen in the tank, it’ll start up at the first time of asking.”
99% cleaner than ordinary pump
petrol in regards to levels of hazardous hydrocarbons, Aspen Fuel is virtually
free from Ethanol, Aromatics and Benzene, bringing enhanced performance and a
longer service life for all types of modern 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines.
Together with extending engine life and reliability, the significantly fewer
harmful and toxic hydrocarbons reduce the impact your equipment has on your
health and the environment.
“You can’t put a price on your
health and, when I factor in the further efficiencies and convenience brought
about by having the Aspen delivered in 200L drums to site, we more than offset
the additional cost of using Aspen in our chainsaws and other petrol-powered
hand tools.”
