Dutch term
vullingen
Dutch to English
Tech/Engineering
Engineering (general)
vehicles/trucks
This term occurs a couple of times without much context:
Tabel "Bedrijfsstoffen en vullingen";
vullingen (liter).
I note the previous proz entries for bedrijfsstoffen (fuel and lubricants), and was wondering whether simply 'liquids' or 'fluids' would work here. Any suggestions? TIA.

I'd keep it very general. "Contents" as suggested by Francine would be fine as well, I think. Without any context you don't know whether this is anything liquid or solid. The term liter does not always automatically mean anything liquid is involved. Compost is also sold in liter bags.

Comment: "Really sorry for delay in closing this question. I went for this solution in the end as it was as general as the source term, but actually Harry's suggestion helped me understand my context better; Francina's and cjguy's suggestions were good too. Thanks to all of you."
