Automotive & Fleet

Bulk IBC supply lets service chains fill their own application equipment instead of paying aerosol-can prices per vehicle. A single 1,000 L tote treats an entire fleet season.

Fleet workshops build the formulation into seasonal service schedules: underbody and cavity treatment before winter, terminal and connector protection year-round. The film's neutrality across steel, aluminium and zinc coatings matters on modern mixed-metal bodies, where dissimilar-metal joints otherwise seed galvanic attack. Depots switching from aerosol cans to tote supply report per-vehicle material costs falling by a factor of five or more, application time dropping with spray-line speed, and the pressurised-waste stream disappearing entirely. Evaluation follows the standard path — treat panels from your own fleet, compare after a winter, then scale from a pilot drum to a standing tote schedule matched to your service calendar.

The same tote also feeds bodyshop cavity-wax replacement programs, trailer-fleet winterisation and dealer rustproofing services — three revenue lines that share one drum of chemistry, one SDS and one applicator training session, which is exactly the consolidation a workshop manager wants from a consumable. Workshop groups that standardise across depots gain a second-order benefit: one consumable specification means a technician trained at any site can run the treatment bay at any other, and the seasonal peak no longer depends on which branch happened to stock enough cans.
