AdBlue® and Quality

Your AdBlue tank is linked to the SCR system of your vehicle, which is very sensitive. Any liquid that is not AdBlue risks damaging your SCR catalyst. Fill your tank only with AdBlue, and only use AdBlue from a reliable supplier, such as Yara. We provide, under the Air1 brand, AdBlue in sealed packaging that is easy to use, and maintains the integrity of the product.

Avoid AdBlue contamination: it is essential for the performance of your SCR system, and it will avoid costly repairs. It is essential that you never add anything to your AdBlue, as even adding water may damage your SCR catalyst.

Why choose Yara's Air1?

If you want to add AdBlue to the range of products you already offer your customers, do it by choosing the benchmark brand: Yara's Air1!

Supply reliability with Air1

AdBlue is a solution of very pure urea. Yara is a leading producer of urea in the world, producing AdBlue in several plants across Europe, and operating the world’s largest AdBlue plant in Sluiskil in the Netherlands. With Yara as a supplier, you can count on uninterrupted supply reliability, when and where you need it anywhere in the world.

Count on high purity AdBlue with Air1

Our AdBlue is extracted directly from the production of urea in a dedicated quality process, which guarantees purity. This is an extremely important point because not all AdBlue producers use this process which can affect quality. As the SCR catalyst is very sensitive to impurities, it is important for you to rely on a quality product through a supply chain dedicated to AdBlue. Demand the best quality for your customers.
