Hi, I'm looking to source UL91 but seems to cost a fortune for small quantities ( around 1800 litres) - what do people do to bring the costs down? is there a buying group where people club together to get better deals that I maybe could join?

Thanks

Total are the only real serious player in the market although they, too, need large volumes before committing to delivering. Two other suppliers have been unable to commit to giving me 5000 litre loads in recent months and I'm waiting for a Total delivery.

It either has to come by road (from France) or in an ISO container at the moment, neither of which make it cheap.

We gave up on UL91 end of last year as we couldn't source it - and we normally take 10,000L to top up our underground tank.

SEMA had no UL91 at the time and the 100LL came from Water? in Poland.

Shame really as it worked well in our 0 320, but we like to keep group costs down where possible.
