How V25 Works
How V25 Works
Double action that makes the difference
As a combustion improver, V25 enables the fuel to unfold its full potential, enhancing engine performance as well as fuel efficiency. As a lubricity improver, it specifically minimises the wear of fuel-lubricated components. As the first truly sustainable 2-in-1 fuel treatment, V25 keeps your fuel always performing at its best.
Action 1: Fuel Conditioner
Acting as a powerful surfactant, V25 keeps the hydrocarbon molecules optimally dispersed and breaks down any agglomerations that can impair fuel combustion and lead to engine damage.
In addition, V25 acts as a de-emulsifier, preventing water build-up. It ensures optimum fuel atomisation and thus a more thorough, cleaner combustion. Besides a smoother running engine with better fuel economy, you also benefit from lower noxious gas and particulate matter (PM) emissions.
Fuel-impairing agglomerations tend to form in untreated fuel oil.
The powerful dispersing action of V25 prevents the formation of agglomerations that cause sludge and degrade fuel quality.
Action 2: Lubricity Improver
Whilst a lower sulphur content brings health and environmental benefits, the typical process used to remove sulphur from diesel fuel (hydrotreating) also reduces the compounds that ensure lubricity (polyaromatics and nitrogen/oxygen compounds).
V25 forms a protective film on those components of the fuel injection system that depend entirely on fuel lubricity. This minimises wear, extends service intervals and cuts maintenance costs. Independent tests confirm that V25’s lubricating component restores the lost lubricity of low / ultra low-sulphur fuel to safer levels.

See how V25 helps prevent microbial contamination, protect fuel systems, and reduce the risk of sludge, corrosion, and blocked filters before they impact your operation.
Before Combustion
V25 acts as a powerful fuel conditioner, dispersing fuel molecules evenly and breaking down harmful agglomerations that contribute to sludge formation and poor combustion. It also helps separate water from fuel, making drainage easier and reducing the risk of microbial growth.
- Cleaner fuel tanks and fuel lines
- Improved filter performance
- Reduced sludge formation
- Easier water removal
- Better fuel stability during storage
During Combustion
By improving fuel atomisation and combustion quality, V25 enables the fuel to release more of its available energy. At the same time, its lubricity enhancement technology forms a protective film on critical fuel injection components, reducing wear and extending service life.
- More complete combustion
- Improved engine performance
- Smoother operation
- Better fuel economy
- Reduced injector wear
- Extended maintenance intervals
After Combustion
Cleaner combustion leads to cleaner engines.
By reducing carbon deposits, particulate matter and smoke opacity, V25 helps maintain engine efficiency while lowering emissions.
- Reduced exhaust emissions
- Lower particulate matter (PM)
- Cleaner turbochargers
- Cleaner DPF systems
- Lower exhaust temperatures
- Reduced engine stress
