B3C Fuel Solutions, LLC, Conway, SC, specializes in the formulation of eco-friendly fuel additives that reduce emissions, decrease engine wear, and enhance fuel efficiencies to maximize fuel mileage. The company’s Ethanol Shield™ product is a preventative maintenance fuel additive designed for everyday use. The Mechanic In A Bottle™ product is engineered to thoroughly clean the fuel system and combustion chamber.

The company has been working closely with the Equipment & Engine Training Council (EETC) to ensure that EETC-certified technicians have full knowledge of how ethanol interacts with and creates an impact on power equipment. EETC executive director Jim Roche says, “We are pleased to collaborate with a complete fuel solutions company such as B3C to advance equipment and engine training and education for technicians in the power equipment industry.”

Labeling operations upgrade

To label their fuel solutions products, B3C had been using a manual label application/push pedal system. The company wanted to increase labeling speeds and production volumes and reduce labor requirements.  After evaluation of various options, the company opted to install a Model 3015 labeler with a Model 5100 wrap system from Label-Aire.
