About Us
Maine Standard Biofuels is a locally owned, people-first small business right here in Maine. We focus on cutting waste and creating high-performance biobased products that actually work. Our Solvitall Paving line brings powerful, plant-based solutions to the asphalt world, including ATR Asphalt and Tar Remover and ReleaseME ARA Asphalt Release Agent. These products deliver serious cleaning and release power while being safer for workers, equipment, and the environment.
As Maine’s only commercial biofuel manufacturer since 2007, we’re growing fast and looking for a driven Sales & Service Representative to join our Solvitall Paving team.
Summary

You’ll help contractors switch to greener, high-performing alternatives that make their jobs easier and cleaner.
