ReFuel Solutions S.r.l. (MO)

ReFuel Solutions was born out of the urgent need to decarbonize the transport sector for goods and people.

ReFuel has invented a product for such vehicles, instead adapting them to satisfy the new environmental requirements: BiodieselKit.

This innovative technology guarantees maximum exploitation of the potential of biofuels.
