Furnace Oil & LDO Supply: What VC Solutions Trades and How to Buy

By VC Solutions

Alongside industrial solvents, VC Solutions supplies industrial fuels to manufacturers across Maharashtra and Gujarat. Here is what we trade and how to buy.

Furnace Oil (FO)

Furnace oil is a heavy residual fuel used where sustained heat matters more than clean burning:

  • Boilers in chemical, textile, paper and food processing plants.
  • Furnaces and heaters in metal treatment and process industries.
  • Thermic fluid heaters for indirect process heating.

FO is priced lower than lighter fuels, which keeps steam and heating costs down for plants set up to handle it — it typically needs heated storage and pumping to flow well.

Light Diesel Oil (LDO)

LDO sits between diesel and furnace oil: lighter than FO, easier to handle, and suited to:

  • Smaller burners and kilns that cannot justify FO handling systems.
  • Standby and startup duty — many FO-fired systems start on LDO.
  • DG sets and intermittent loads where fuel sits in the tank between runs.

If your consumption is modest or intermittent, LDO usually beats FO on total cost once handling is counted.

Aromatic and base oils

For specific industrial processes we also trade aromatic oils and base oils — as process oils, extenders and feedstock. Tell us the application and specification, and we will confirm availability and price.

How to buy

  1. Tell us the product and quantity — for example, FO for a boiler at so many kilolitres a month, or LDO for standby duty.
  2. Get a quote based on current market rates. Fuel prices move, so quotes are current-dated.
  3. We arrange supply with proper invoicing and documentation, on a schedule that matches your consumption.

Consistent supply matters more than a one-time price for fuels — a boiler that runs out of FO stops the whole plant. We plan recurring deliveries so storage never runs dry.

One compliant partner for solvents and fuels

Factories in Maharashtra and Gujarat can use VC Solutions as a single compliant partner: we supply fresh and recovered solvents, buy spent solvent streams through MPCB-authorized partners, and supply furnace oil and LDO — one vendor relationship, one documentation standard.
