ABOUT US

Promoting sustainable solutions for the future of energy

Specialists in used vegetable oils and sustainable raw materials for biofuels.

At UCO Trading, we work every day to turn waste into new energy opportunities. Since 2013, we have been offering comprehensive solutions for the management, traceability and marketing of sustainable raw materials used in the production of biofuels and renewable energy. Our business brings together international markets, specialist logistics and sustainability.

History

Over a decade of promoting sustainable solutions

Since 2013, UCO Trading has been linking waste with energy. What was then a fragmented market, characterised by a lack of transparency and inadequate documentation standards, now forms the core of our business: verifiable traceability, strict regulatory compliance and the efficient supply of raw materials to industry.

The expansion into the US in 2022, the integration of FIVE-E in 2025 and the launch in Dubai in 2026 all follow the same logic: anticipating demand for sustainable raw materials before the competition does. By the time the sector began to demand auditable systems, certifications and supply chain documentation, UCO Trading already had them in place.

We aren’t the biggest operator. We’re the one that’s hardest to replace when reliability is non-negotiable

"The starting point could be a restaurant in Indonesia or Peru, to give the example of two places that are a world apart. There, a local company buys the used cooking oil that was otherwise destined for the bin, turning it into a valuable asset that will undergo a process of recycling and transformation into a product suitable for the end user. Uco Trading manages the entire process, helping to create a more sustainable planet."
