Oil, additive and car care specialist, LIQUI MOLY, as always had one of the busiest stands at Automechanika showing how its product range can help to open up new opportunities for both stockists and workshops. 

One of the highlights was the premier of new Bag-in-box packaging that uses 90% less plastic than the classic 20 litre container. 

The exterior of the new bag-in-box packaging consists of coated, waterproof cardboard containing a fully recyclable plastic bag. This means a significantly lower volume of waste produced by a workshop. The new packaging also conveniently fits into the popular LIQUI MOLY oil storage cabinet. 

As well as using fewer raw materials, the bag-in-box also makes logistics more efficient and convenient, thus adding to sustainability.  

Set to open up major new business opportunities for garages LIQUI MOLY also introduced the Jet Clean Tronic III concept in Frankfurt. This includes a professional version which is a 3-in-1 solution which cleans the fuel system, the intake tract including intake valves and the particulate filter. The basic version does a similar job at an attractively low price.

Removing parts and cleaning or replacing them by hand costs garages time and money. It is much cheaper to clean the engine components in situ. LIQUI MOLY Managing Director Günter Hiermaier, comments, "Services that are attractive to the end consumer and reduce the burden on their own wallet bind them to the garage they trust and they recommend it to others. This boosts new customer business." 

LIQUI MOLY launched Jet Clean Tronic in 2005, followed by a further developed version in 2018. More than 3,000 units have been sold worldwide to date. The third generation version stands out from the two previous ones. For the first time, workshops can choose between two types: the low-cost basic version is a tabletop unit with hose holder. This can be used to clean the fuel systems of petrol and diesel engines. Jet Clean Tronic III Pro is a flagship product that cleans the fuel and intake system, including intake valves, and the particulate filter. In addition to a hose holder, the trolley device also has a visual and acoustic warning device and a stowage compartment. Both devices are fully electronic, have a 4-inch touch display and are WiFi enabled. This means that the latest device software is always available, without additional annual costs.

Five special Pro-Line JetClean additives take care of removing deposits. The system is suitable for all 2 and 4-stroke engines across cars, motorcycles, vans, boats, commercial vehicles and equipment.
