“No AdBlue means no trucks. And that means no supply for Germany”

The Federal Association of Goods Transport and Logistics (BGL) has complained about a dramatic shortage of the exhaust gas cleaning agent AdBlue - and has therefore warned of supply bottlenecks in Germany. “No AdBlue means no trucks. And that means no supply for Germany," said BGL general manager Dirk Engelhardt of the "Bild" newspaper (Tuesday edition). Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck (Greens) accused Engelhardt of driving “Germany with one eye to the wall”.

The AdBlue producer SKW Piesteritz in Saxony-Anhalt has not been producing AdBlue for more than two weeks, Engelhardt told the "Bild". The first bottlenecks in retail could occur in as little as two weeks. Engelhardt called on the federal government to initiate a "logistics round table".

AdBlue is urea, which catalytic converters for diesel engines need in order to split harmful nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gases into harmless hydrogen and nitrogen.
