Rising Fuel Prices | How SlurryKat Slurry Technology Helps You Save

Save Fuel, Time & Costs with SlurryKat!

Diesel prices across the UK and Ireland are rising, driven by global oil prices climbing to around $100 per barrel, with ongoing tensions across the world and supply constraints from key producers. In the UK, diesel currently averages £1.60+ pence per litre, while in Ireland prices typically range from €1.80–€2.00 per litre.

For farms and contractors, these increases make operational efficiency more important than ever. At SlurryKat, our slurry tankers and umbilical systems are engineered to reduce fuel consumption, improve productivity and maximise slurry nutrient efficiency, providing measurable savings across a range of operations.

SlurryKat Tankers Designed for Efficiency

​SlurryKat tankers are built to optimise performance and minimise fuel use. Our tankers when compared to our nearest competitors machines show:

Our tankers also integrate seamlessly with our Dribble Bars, Trailing Shoes and Flexi Shoe applicators. Our spreading equipment is multi award winning and renowned for precise slurry placement, reducing unnecessary passes and in field labour, meaning your total working time for applying valuable slurry nutrients is dramatically reduced, again saving you valuable fuel, time and overall costs.

Umbilical Systems Minimising Machine Hours and Fuel Use

​SlurryKat umbilical systems are designed for efficient slurry application with minimal tractor movements, saving fuel while maintaining high productivity. Key features include:

For example, SlurryKat's 24m Premium Plus™ dribble bar is up to 55% lighter than many competitive models, allowing operators to achieve wide working widths even with a 150hp tractor, for greater fuel efficiency.

Reducing machine movements and optimising field coverage directly contributes to fuel savings and lower operational costs over the season. With SlurryKat you can save drastically over the life time of the machine!
