A vision to reduce the world’s carbon footprint
Argent Energy is a European biodiesel producer dedicated to transforming waste materials into sustainable, second-generation fuel to advance decarbonisation. Our success is rooted in the expertise, innovation, and commitment of our people, who are at the core of our business.
Founded in the UK, Argent Energy has become a pioneer in transforming waste into renewable products. We are proud to treat to most difficult waste streams and (pre-)treat these to valuable use. This includes waste from grease traps in restaurants that normally accumulates as large fat bergs in the UK sewage systems. Today, we operate biodiesel plants in Stanlow, United Kingdom, and Amsterdam, Netherlands, producing approximately 200,000 tons of waste-based biodiesel annually with over 250 employees across all sites.
Biodiesel has played a key role in helping Europe achieve its climate reduction targets, particularly within the transportation sector. While road transport has made substantial strides in sustainability, the maritime and aviation sectors are also beginning to integrate biofuel solutions. Argent is committed to supporting every sector in their journey towards sustainability.
Investing in our people is key. Argent believes in empowering all team members to bring their passion to work, encouraging them to stretch their minds and skills. This creates a safe and supportive environment where personal growth is encouraged and celebrated.
Safety is paramount. A safe environment at Argent is that is free from injury and where everyone feels safe to express themselves and be who they want to be. We strive to create a workplace where safety is ingrained in every aspect of our operations, making Argent a special place to work.
The strength of Argent lies in its people, whose dedication and collaboration drive the company forward towards its vision for global decarbonisation. At Argent Energy, it’s more than just a job; we have a passion to identify and deliver solutions for our customers and to enable every employee to achieve their full potential. Every person’s contribution matters, and the company thrives together as one team.
