Twin Power announced the return of one of its most popular dealership support efforts, the six-gallon Bag-in-a-Box Dealer Oil Program. This program provides dealers with a free, heavy-duty metal dispenser rack when they purchase six boxes of Twin Power’s high-quality oil and lubricants. This innovative program offers numerous advantages over traditional 55-gallon drums, especially for dealers with limited space or a focus on service and repair.

“We are thrilled to bring this efficient and environmentally friendly program to our dealers,” said Twin Power’s Brand Manager James Simonelli. “The Bag-in-a-Box system is compact, easy to use and offers substantial savings, which makes it a great choice for shops looking to streamline their operations and reduce costs. And, it’s the same great oil that we offer in our quart containers, not a short service interval or break-in oil.”

The six-gallon Bag-in-a-Box Dealer Oil Program offers numerous benefits to dealers. First, the free dispenser rack provides a practical solution for oil storage and dispensing. The system’s compact design requires no more space than a single 55-gallon drum, making it ideal for shops with limited storage. Additionally, the easy-to-use system simplifies oil dispensing and allows dealers to keep service quantities of several different weights of oil available to technicians.

Environmentally, the bag-in-a-box design eliminates containment and disposal issues associated with traditional drums, reducing waste and eliminating the challenge of handling drums of oil. The six-gallon bag saves dealers up to 30% compared to quart prices, providing significant financial benefits. The oil in the bag-in-a-box system is the same top-quality product found in quart bottles, ensuring reliable performance without the need for break-in or short service intervals.

“Our new program not only offers logistical and environmental benefits but supports dealers in providing the highest quality service to their customers,” continued Simonelli. “Whether it’s a conventional oil, synthetic oil, primary lube or semi-synthetic transmission oil, dealers can have it ‘on tap’ for their techs and customers.”

Dealers can take advantage of this program by contacting their Turn 14 Distribution sales rep to place their order.

Valvoline Global has announced the global launch of its groundbreaking premium full synthetic motor oil, Restore & Protect. The first-of-its-kind innovation removes up to 100% of engine-killing deposits with continuous use, restoring engines to run like factory clean while protecting against future damage.

This latest addition to the Valvoline product portfolio is a paradigm shift in motor oil performance and challenges traditional thinking about the category. With a history steeped in trust and innovation, Valvoline has consistently been at the forefront of the automotive lubricant category. Restore & Protect, with its revolutionary technology and unparalleled benefits, marks another milestone in a legacy of firsts that spans more than 150 years.

“We are thrilled to introduce Valvoline Restore & Protect on a global scale,” said Jamal Muashsher, president and CEO, Valvoline Global. “This product truly redefines what motor oil can achieve and positively impacts consumers and customers like never before. Restore & Protect is a testament to our commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation in the automotive industry.”

Restore & Protect is designed for gasoline-engine automobiles, from brand-new to older, high-mileage vehicles, and is the culmination of three years of relentless development, resulting in Valvoline’s most technologically advanced engine oil ever.

This premium full synthetic product also presents two of Valvoline’s proprietary new technologies: Active Clean, which removes deposits and restores engines to run like new, and Liqui-Shield, which works proactively to prevent deposit formation and protects against future damage. 

Valvoline Restore & Protect is poised to hit shelves and Valvoline business partners globally in 2024. More information about Restore & Protect, including its technology and availability, can be found online for do-it-yourself customers and for quick lube, dealership, auto service/tire shops and other partners.

LIQUI MOLY Presents Optimized Bicycle Product Line https://www.motorcyclepowersportsnews.com/liqui-moly-presents-optimized-bicycle-product-line/ Tue, 01 Aug 2023 13:08:06 +0000 https://www.motorcyclepowersportsnews.com/?p=198551 New look and current developments in the tried-and-tested bicycle products of the German lubricant specialist.

The post LIQUI MOLY Presents Optimized Bicycle Product Line appeared first on Motorcycle & Powersports News.

]]>
LIQUI MOLY has over 65 years of lubrication experience with automobiles. The traditional Ulm-based company has been transferring this knowledge to all two-wheelers for some time now — both with and without engines. The “BIKE” care series not only comes in a new look but also offers reliability for all types of bicycles with product innovations.

It is estimated that around one billion bicycles are in use worldwide. Whether e-bike, gravel bike, city bike, BMX, classic racing bike or mountain bike: They should all give pleasure for as long as possible. And this is precisely where the 10 BIKE products from LIQUI MOLY now come into play.

“Reliable helpers that ensure that every bicycle functions perfectly and retains its value. Just like our motor oils, additives and care products,” said LIQUI MOLY Managing Director Günter Hiermaier. 

Now they look even better: The new design is much more appealing and modern and extends throughout the entire product group. The redesign was already applied a few months ago for the BIKE Detailer quick paintwork care and the newly designed BIKE Ceramic Chain Spray and was very well received by end consumers. With this product, the name says it all: The ceramic, high-performance additives provide excellent protection against friction and wear for particularly stressed chains and cassettes of bicycles and e-bikes. The special lubricant demonstrates its excellent creep properties immediately after spraying — whatever the weather conditions. Thanks to its enormous adhesion, spin-off is reduced to a minimum. The Ceramic Chain Spray protects metallic components excellently against corrosion and does not attack plastics, paints and metals. The flip-up spray head enables precise and easily dispensable application.

“It is no coincidence that, for example, Oliver Widmann (incumbent German mountain bike champion and multiple vice and junior world champion in the “Trials” discipline) relies on our products,” added Managing Director Günter Hiermaier. The cooperation with MAGURA, a leading manufacturer of bicycle components, which has been in place since 2017, also underlines this quality standard. In addition, the internationally renowned professional mountain biker Eliott Lapotre from France also relies on LIQUI MOLY BIKE products. “Perfect cleaning, care and lubrication of bicycles is now part of our DNA. The bicycle industry is developing very quickly and positively. The need for our expertise is constantly increasing. That’s why we will continue to work on optimizing this product line in the future.” 

Examples of this are the Wet Lube and Dry Lube. Both chain oils will soon be available on the market with an even better formula. In addition, the booklet languages will be expanded on all products to provide even more information at a glance, also internationally.

“There are passionate cycling fans all over the world — including in our company. Whether quick care or more extensive preparation for the next trips, we believe that we have developed a product line that covers a very wide area of application and will simply bring more satisfaction and enjoyment with bicycles to both specialist retailers and end consumers,” said Hiermaier.
