Cataclean highlights importance of maintenance amid proposed emissions regulations

Proposed changes to in-use vehicle emissions regulations represent a crucial step forward in tackling emissions tampering and enhancing the environmental performance of the UK vehicle parc. As the Department for Transport consults on strengthened controls, industry bodies like the Independent Automotive Aftermarket Federation (IAAF) are calling for more robust testing methods to identify compromised systems across the country.

For Cataclean, these legislative proposals underscore the vital role of regular vehicle maintenance in managing emissions from existing vehicles. Independent garages remain central to helping motorists identify potential issues early and restore proper engine performance through effective servicing. To support this ecosystem, Cataclean continues to champion preventative care with its flagship 8-in-1 fuel and exhaust system cleaning solution, expertly engineered to combat harmful carbon build-up across critical engine components.

Maddie Bamber, key account manager at Cataclean, commented: “The discussion around in-use vehicle emissions highlights the importance of looking after the vehicles already on our roads, as well as addressing emissions tampering. At Cataclean, we’re committed to providing solutions that help motorists and workshops tackle carbon build-up as part of ongoing vehicle care.”

With more than three decades of experience supporting vehicle efficiency, Cataclean believes preventative maintenance will remain an essential pillar for the automotive sector as it adapts to tighter environmental standards and increased regulatory scrutiny steadily moving forward.
