What is HVO100?

HVO100, or Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil, is a 100% renewable, fossil-free diesel alternative made from waste and residue materials like used cooking oil. Through a unique hydrotreating process, these materials are transformed into a clean-burning, efficient fuel that’s fully compatible with certified diesel engines – including the powerful engines in our Ferris mowers.

HVO100 reduces up to 90% of lifecycle CO₂ emissions compared to traditional diesel, without any modifications needed to your Ferris mower

Discover the power of Ferris' top mowers designed to deliver outstanding performance while running on HVO100. Both the IS® 6200 Diesel Zero Turn Mower and the IS® 2600 Diesel Zero Turn Mower are fully compatible with HVO100 fuel, providing you with a sustainable, high-powered solution for all your landscaping needs.


Why run your Ferris Mower on HVO100?

  • Seamless Integration

    HVO100 is a drop-in solution for Ferris mowers, meaning no adjustments or upgrades are needed. Switch effortlessly to a sustainable fuel that works perfectly with your existing equipment.

  • Eco-Friendly Performance

    HVO100 reduces greenhouse gases and particulate matter, making it safer for operators and better for local air quality.

  • Extended Engine Life

    With cleaner combustion, HVO100 reduces carbon build-up, resulting in less maintenance and extended longevity for your mower’s engine.

  • Ready for All Conditions

    Unlike some other fuels, HVO100 performs reliably in cold weather and is stable for long-term storage.

Clean fuel, responsible origins

HVO100 is produced using advanced refining techniques that transform renewable waste materials into high-quality diesel fuel. Unlike some other biofuels, HVO100 is 100% palm oil-free, so it doesn’t contribute to deforestation or harm ecosystems.


HVO100: The sustainable edge for heavy-duty mowing

  • NO UPFRONT INVESTMENT

    As a true drop-in solution, HVO100 offers a practical path to sustainability. Your existing diesel-powered Ferris mower is already compatible with HVO100. Meaning you can cut emissions today, without costly upgrades or having to replace a machine that still has years of reliable performance left.  

  • TESTED, TRUSTED AND READY

    HVO100 isn’t a new or untested solution—it has already been used across millions of kilometres in real-world applications, from logistics and boating to road cars, construction, mining equipment, forestry, and now lawn mowers. Its reliability has been proven in the toughest conditions, whether that’s extreme cold, long-distance use, or in high-performance machinery.

  • ENVIRONMENTALLY SMART CHOICE

    Who says you have to give up the power and reliability of a diesel engine to go green? With HVO100, you don’t. HVO100 is one of the most effective ways to cut CO₂ without disruption.

    And as fuel technology advances, who’s to say future developments won’t make HVO100 fully emissions-free?

  • TURF-FRIENDLY WEIGHT ADVANTAGE

    Battery-powered mowers with similar specs tend to be heavier due to large battery packs, increasing turf damage, especially on softer ground. Ferris mowers which run on HVO100 retain their usual weight, manoeuvrability and power while cutting CO₂ emissions by up to 90%. Which make them a strong choice for tenders where sustainability matters.


Note: Emission savings depend on the feedstock and producer.
Reputable options such as Neste can yield up to a 90% reduction, but results may vary.


Sustainability without the disruption

Switching to HVO100 is simple, seamless, and hassle-free. As a drop-in solution, HVO100 works perfectly with your existing diesel engines and fuelling infrastructure—no modifications, no extra costs, and no operational disruptions. Just fuel up and go.

But that’s just the beginning. HVO100 has been rigorously tested across more than 50 million kilometers, proving its reliability in diverse conditions. HVO100 offers outstanding stability and storage properties, making it ideal for long-term use. It resists water absorption, remains free of sulphur and aromatics, and retains its high quality over time. Plus, HVO100 performs reliably in the freezing cold, with winter grades staying effective down to -40°C, ensuring uninterrupted operations year-round.

Thanks to its cleaner combustion and ultra-clean composition, HVO100 helps extend engine life and reduce maintenance needs, allowing you to spend more time on the job and less time in the shop. It reduces deposits and protects exhaust systems like diesel particulate filters (DPFs), keeping your equipment running smoothly.

In short, HVO100 delivers clean energy without compromise.
