Aspen Alkylate Petrol – The Best Fuel for Your Machinery

Cleaner Air, Easier Starting, and a Longer Life for Your Garden Machinery

At Melton Mowers, we’ve spent over 40 years repairing and servicing garden machinery. We know that the number one cause of engine trouble is "stale" fuel. That’s why we are proud to announce that we are now an official stockist of Aspen Alkylate Petrol.

Unlike the standard E10 petrol you find at the pump, Aspen is a specialized alkylate fuel that is virtually free from ethanol and harmful toxins. Whether you are a professional landscaper or a homeowner, switching to Aspen is the single best thing you can do for your equipment.

Why Choose Aspen Fuel?

1. Better for your Machine Standard pump petrol contains ethanol, which attracts moisture and can corrode your carburettor or perish rubber fuel lines—especially if the machine is left sitting over winter. Aspen stays fresh for up to 5 years, meaning your mower or chainsaw will start first time, every time, even after a long break.

2. Better for your Health If you’ve ever felt a headache or felt "heavy" after using a petrol trimmer, it’s because of the benzene and aromatics in standard fuel. Aspen is 99% cleaner than regular petrol, meaning virtually no smell and much safer air for you to breathe while you work.

3. Better for the Environment By choosing Aspen, you are significantly reducing the toxic emissions your machinery produces. It’s the responsible choice for anyone caring for a garden or working in the great outdoors.

Which Aspen do I need?

We stock both the blue and orange cans to cover all your garden machinery needs:

Aspen 4 (Blue Can): For all 4-stroke engines (lawn mowers, rotavators, and small tractors). This is a direct replacement for Unleaded petrol and requires no mixing.
Aspen 2 (Orange Can): For 2-stroke engines (chainsaws, hedge trimmers, and brushcutters). This comes pre-mixed with a high-quality, biodegradable 2-stroke oil (50:1), so you never have to worry about mixing ratios again.
