Prime Lube Inc., the parent company of Blue Sky East, announced that Domestic Fuels & Lubes of Chesapeake, Va., has become a distributor of Blue Sky Diesel Exhaust Fluid. Domestic Fuels & Lubes will offer the diesel fuel supplement to customers in Virginia and North Carolina. The company says distribution of Blue Sky DEF will meet growing demand for its use in diesel-powered engines, including tractor-trailers, pickup trucks, passenger cars, agricultural and construction equipment, marine vessels and trains.
“The addition of Domestic Fuels & Lubes to our growing family of distributorships is significant for our growth,” says Robert Arbasetti, chief operating officer of Prime Lube. “We are excited about our association with Domestic Fuels & Lubes, a leading supplier of petroleum products and services, and the expansion of Blue Sky DEF in Virginia and North Carolina. The availability of Blue Sky DEF to diesel-fuel customers allows them to stay compliant with EPA-required emissions levels while benefitting from a high-quality low-cost easy-to-use solution that keeps engines running efficiently.”
Domestic Fuels & Lubes’ full-service distribution and handling capacity of Blue Sky DEF will include its own fleet of trucks for delivery, as well as the capability to provide customers with dispensing equipment, storage tanks and other handling equipment required for DEF. With this strategic distribution partnership, Blue Sky East says it is able to offer a more affordable supply of DEF to customers in Virginia and North Carolina, and that lower transportation costs also will result in a significant price advantage for retail fuel stations and their customers.
“At Domestic Fuels & Lubes, we have always been committed to providing our customers with safer, cleaner and more efficient fuel alternatives, including biodiesel fuels,” says Buddy Ivey, commercial sales manager of Domestic Fuels & Lubes. “The addition of Blue Sky DEF to our product line allows us to make a positive impact on our regional area by offering customers the environmental and performance benefits of this diesel exhaust fluid.”
