Liverpool eco-engine product maker Cataclean Global is reporting a surge in sales to the United States. Cataclean Global Director Graham Fraser said the company is pleased to report an increase in North American sales of 300% in the last 12 months.
Mr Fraser said the sales had been driven across the United States, helped by a tough stance on emissions inspections in many states and a strong relationship with its US licensee Ohio based Accel Performance.
“The USA is a massive potential market for us and we feel we are only touching the surface of it,” he said. “The US has led the way in cracking down on vehicle emissions stretching back to the federal Clean Air Act in the late seventies. As a result there are established regimes for emissions inspections across the country. That rigorous approach means there is a strong demand for our product which can reduce emissions by 60%. Our licensee Accel Performance is helping us communicate our benefits with greater impact to motorists and mechanics in America. Accel is a big player in the States and Cataclean is the first chemical, fuel system cleaner it has sold for 50 years which reflects its belief and confidence in Cataclean. Our big benefits are: helping petrol and diesel cars reduce their emissions, making the engines more efficient and enhancing performance by improving torque. Moreover our product is attractive in the US because it is easy to use for motorists.”
Mr Fraser said the North American sales rise comes at an exciting time in the company’s exports campaign. It has recently been named a UKTI North West Exports Champion in recognition of its overseas growth in Africa, the Middle East, the United States and Europe.
“Our sales manager William Jones is flying to the United States in November to visit two of the world’s biggest automotive trade shows SEMA and AAPEX both in Las Vegas,” he said. “This will provide a platform for us to network with our contacts and open up more opportunities to grow our sales. We are especially keen to find new partners and expand our distributor network.”
