Cataclean Global, also known as System Products UK LTD, is a Liverpool-based company which was established in 1997. It trades in the UK and exports to Europe,〔http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/business/liverpool-engine-care-firm-cataclean-7028849〕 the USA,〔http://pmmonline.co.uk/news/eco-engine-product-maker-cataclean-revs-usa-sales〕 Africa〔http://www.pmfmag.co.uk/news/industrynews/catacleansignmajorexportdeal#.VPBS0U1yYdU〕 and Australia.〔http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/business/cataclean-goes-down-under-new-8640948〕 It supplies companies including Halfords and motor factors including Euro Car Parts and GSF. ==Products== The principal product of Cataclean Global is called Cataclean, which was first developed in 1995. Cataclean is a fuel system cleaner for diesel, petrol and hybrid engines. Original Cataclean Original is designed to reduce carbon emissions, improve fuel efficiency and vehicle performance. It was renamed Cataclean Liquid Science in 2014. It is mainly aimed at the used car market. The catalytic converters of such vehicles can require cleaning because of a build up of deposits in a catalytic converter which reduces engine power and efficiency. This leads to problems including warning lights coming on, fuel consumption declining, the engine being sluggish, excessive smoke/odour coming from the exhaust, and increased carbon emissions. The UK Ministry of Transport MOT test requires that all vehicles pass an emissions test.〔https://www.gov.uk/emissions-testing〕 An estimated one million vehicles a year fail their MOT because of high emissions. Cleaning products such as Cataclean Original can be poured into the fuel tank and contain compounds that break down and remove deposits in the catalytic converter and other parts of the fuel systems such as the valves and injectors. DPF Cataclean DPF is designed to prevent Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs) breaking down.〔http://www.motester.co.uk/mot-news/motorists-can-prevent-diesel-filter-trap-problems-cataclean〕 Under EU law DPFs are now fitted to all new vehicles which run on diesel. DPFs sometimes experience problems when used on short, stop-start journeys in urban areas causing vehicles to enter limp mode. DPFs are meant to clean themselves on a long journey or motorway drive, but if they spend too much time in a congested area they become clogged and can break down. From February 2014 the UK Government announced cars which have had their DPF removed will fail their MOT, or annual test for heavy vehicles.〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/10573720/DPF-removal-the-facts.html〕 Cleaning products such as Cataclean DPF protect DPFs by reducing soot emissions, assisting the DPF to regenerate and reducing risk of it becoming clogged. One Shot Bike Cataclean launched its ‘One Shot’ Bike product in January 2015.〔http://www.thebusinessdesk.com/northwest/news/717411-cataclean-revs-up-for-bike-market.html#〕 It had been tested ahead of its launch at Motrac Racing in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cataclean Global」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
