The story of
Koeweit Oil Trade

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 founding in 1947.

Authorized collector of
hazardous waste

Koeweit Oil Trade is an authorized collector of hazardous waste, specializing in waste streams from the automotive and industrial sectors. We are registered with the NIWO under VIHB number 523340, and have the appropriate approvals to collect:

We apply the terms and conditions as prepared by the Dutch Association of Processors of Chemical Waste (VVCA). Please note that a surcharge applies if the water percentage in the waste oil exceeds 5%.

Environmental impact and sustainability

We see waste materials not as waste, but as raw materials 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
entirely 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 base oils and high-quality lubricants. For other waste streams, coolant, brake fluid, oil filters and oleaginous waste we ensure that these 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 its core.
