THE STORY OF KUWAIT OIL TRADING

Welcome to Koeweit Oil Trade, the specialist in the collection and processing of waste oil. As the oldest collector in the Netherlands, we have been contributing to a cleaner world since our establishment in 1947. Beginning in Amsterdam and based at our current location in Lelystad since the 1980s, we have grown to become a leading name in the industry.

In early 2024, we became part of Puraglobe, which allows us to control the entire chain: from collection to upcycling. This allows us to process waste oil into high-quality base oils and lubricants. Our process guarantees the highest possible quality and contributes to a circular economy and a sustainable future.

Koeweit Oil Trade is Part of puraglobe

Since January 2024, we have been part of the PURAGLOBE group, the leader in upcycling waste oil. With state-of-the-art oil refining technologies, they contribute to a sustainable, circular economy. PURAGLOBE technologies help reduce CO2 emissions during the refining process by up to 80%.

Certification

The waste materials we collect from you must meet a number of specifications. In addition, we have drawn up general conditions for collection and sampling. So you always know exactly where you stand.

We apply the terms and conditions as drawn up by the Dutch Association of Processors of Chemical Waste. However, we have a deviation: if the water percentage in the waste oil exceeds 5%, we charge a surcharge.

Environmental impact and sustainability

We see waste oil not as waste, but as a raw material with value. Through responsible collection and innovative processing, we minimize the impact on the environment. Thus, together with our customers, we contribute to a circular economy and a cleaner future.

Sustainable waste management, fully in-house

With us, it doesn't stop with collection. We ensure that your waste streams are processed into reusable raw materials. We upcycle waste oil into basic oils and high-quality lubricants. For other waste streams, cooling and brake fluids, oil filters and waste containing oil, we ensure that they are recycled into new raw materials through a carefully controlled process. By managing and monitoring this process from start to finish, we remain responsible for sustainable and environmentally friendly processing, with quality and reliability at the center.

Waste oil

At Koeweit Oil Trade, we collect waste oil, thermal oil, hydraulic oil and transformer oil (if PCB-free) completely in-house, from transportation to processing. In our high-tech plant, this oil is upcycled into high-quality base oil or lubricants. Through innovative technologies and tight quality controls, we ensure that this waste stream is given a second life in a sustainable and circular chain.
