Dear Customer,

From 1st December 2020, our company will be simply known as VPS.

This change forms a strategic evolution of the company in taking a leadership position, plus working in partnership with
you on your decarbonisation journey to become more sustainable.

In conjunction with our rebranding, we have a new look and a new website, which will go live on 1st December 2020. In

Here, you will see our Experience, Innovation & Sustainability services and support.

The world is changing towards a greener and more sustainable future. Society demands are driving an accelerating
decarbonisation agenda, with policymakers and regulators, targeting huge reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

The International Maritime Organisation’s strategy aims to reduce the carbon intensity of international shipping by at least
40% by 2030 and 70% by 2050, relative to 2008.
Rapid decarbonisation of the power sector, which is being achieved by increasing renewable energy sources and
decreasing fossil fuels, is creating an increased demand for electricity.

At VPS, we are already ahead of the curve. We pioneered Fuel Quality Testing in 1981 to better protect assets,
people and the environment. We have grown to become the largest bunker fuel testing company in the world, having
tested more than three million samples over the past 40 years. Plus, we have continued to create innovative, bespoke
testing methods and we have expanded into oil condition monitoring.

VPS is here to provide valuable advice on the optimisation of engine performance, asset protection and
the reduction of GHG emissions

And it doesn’t end there. We have further expanded our expertise to test transformer insulating fluids, widening our
market reach to the electricity and renewables sectors.

Everyone at VPS is dedicated to working in close collaboration with our customers. To help them optimise their use of
resources, minimise their environmental emissions and create a more sustainable way to grow their business.
