Over the last 10 years I have seen a lot of things done to fool and trick people into doing business with them because they say they are "Green" but this is rediculous. To lie to people about making Biodiesel in order to trick them into giving them their oil...come on people! Just like a similar company Coastal Biodiel was doing years ago before they went bankrupt and closed. Leaving me without a oil colleciton services and grease trap services. Funny thing is this happened to me by another company Grease Guard some years before Coastal Biodiesel came along. They went out of business too.
Once I found out from a friend that he called Panecea to buy some biodiesel for his truck and he was told they don't make fuel I spent some "Google time" trying to learn more about this company. All I could find were 2 busted websites that both are not completed yet and look like a 7 yr old made them both. This is what really made me quesiton their integrity. Are they another fly by night company trying to take vaualble oil from the local Biodiesel industry? Being a bit of a tree hugger and Biodiesel enthusitist I watch this industry pretty close and have a rough idea of whats going on with it and it ain't good.
So I wrote down the numbers of other biodiesel plants in the state I found online and called them to see what they had to say about Panacea. Turns out their are only 2 plants left in the state in operation. I was told by both companies that they don't do any business with panacea and to their knowledge they don't make biodiesel. I was told that I could call the SC Department of Energy and find out if they make fuel. Aparently they require all biodiesel plants to report Biodiesel production each year. The lady in the Department of Energy didn't even know anything about them and that they didn't have record of any produciton but she did say that there were only two plants making fuel in the state in Winnsboro and Charleston, "All other plants were either closed or idle at this time."
This struck a cord with me and I googled some more. I simply couldn't find any info on Panacea Biofuels. Though if you google SC Biodiesel thier is a lot of info about the other companies and when searched they looked legit. So then I called Panacea directly and kinda got the run around about their biodiesel produciton. Bottom line is they have never sold to the public and only made fuel for a construction company years ago. This is a joke.
If they don't make fuel then why is Biofuels in their name?
If they don't make fuel why do both of their busted websites say they do?
If their is only 2 other active plants in the state and they don't do business with them then where is all the oil they collect going? Neither of the other Bio copanies commented on what they thought Panacea does with the oil but both assured me it isn't going to them.
So to sum all this up: They don't make Biodiesel fuel and the oil they collect is "Exported" out of SC and may even be sold over seas. One of the Biodiesel companies said "the market over seas pays more" so it could be getting exported from the US. Either way it isn't being used in SC and that is BS!
I love SC and our environment and this type of lying isn't helping either! I just though you should know what I found out so you could stay away from them too.
