Fuel Doctors Africa is owned by Kapp Group (pty) ltd, a South African company. Through new relationships forged with Fuel Doctors Australia we are official suppliers of this all-in-one system cleaning solution to the continent. Africa and most of South Africa still runs on dirty diesel (50ppm).
Being local we are well-positioned to provide first class, personalised pre- and post-sales customer service. We also offer optimal pricing for clients staying in this continent.
Specialising for over twenty years in the cleaning and preventative maintenance associated with underground and aboveground downstream fuel storage systems, Fuel Doctors has earned a reputation for attention to detail and genuine customer commitment whilst providing competitively priced services and products that only a privately-owned company can.
Initially emergency power generation and oxidised fuel constituted the scope of the company until entering the service station and truck stop industry in 1992. Underground, emergency power generator fuel tanks have a man way access for cleaning, service stations, truck stops and marinas do not.
Thus Fuel Doctors had to develop a new system of cleaning, leading to the in-house formulation of Fuel Doctor fuel conditioner/tank cleaner, that we use as a tool of trade in conjunction with filtration and centrifuges to clean inaccessible fuel tanks. Unique in the industry Fuel Doctors are competent in both chemical and mechanical engineering, crafting their skills from day to day hands on observation and application.
Technology has moved so fast that manufacturers with their extended worldwide dealer networks cannot train their repair technicians fast enough to keep up with the advancing injection parameters and emission targets. Yet with the astronomical cost of repair or removal and replacement of fuel injection components, plus the high cost of cleaning tanks, quality assurance has never been more pertinent.
Our corporate goal has been to fill this gap, to maintain quality assurance for dispensed products by working closely with fuel suppliers and fuel consumers.
Fuel Doctors services have evolved to include:
► Removal and replacement of underground and above-ground storage systems
► Integrity testing of tanks and lines
► Environmental compliance audits
► Flammable and combustible safety management
procedures
All this whilst still maintaining our core business of quality assurance sampling, tank and line de-contaminating and the never-ending boat tank cleaning. A joint branding distribution agreement with Castrol in 2000 ensured the application of a stringent and successful product testing regime for all products.
Fuel Doctors is still constantly looking for new ways to upgrade their technology to maximise power and component life whilst minimising fuel consumption and emissions.
