Aircon 36 www.aftermarketonline.net JULY/AUGUST 2025 Premium materials ensure high degree of servicing reliability and come with a warranty Expansion offers a breath of fresh air Summertime boost for genuine air and cabin filters brands TPS, supplier of Volkswagen Group approved genuine parts to the independent motor trade, has boosted its range of filters with the largest ever selection available to its customer network. The current VW range offers a comprehensive selection of air, cabin, fuel and oil filters and with them the benefits and quality reassurance that comes with all approved genuine parts. The filters range has been further boosted by the launch of ‘Brands at TPS’. Arriving this summer, Brands at TPS will see an expansion of the range of products available through its 83 UK centres — by partnering with industryleading third-party brands renowned for producing high-quality mechanical parts. In the initial phase, six well-known aftermarket brands will be introduced into the TPS product family. They include Bosch and Mahle, who will both make their range of filtration products available to TPS customers. As with all genuine products, the TPS genuine filters range is manufactured to the highest quality standards and in accordance with VW’s Formula Q quality assurance system. Designed to fit first time, they help save time and money in the workshop and are identical in quality to the parts used in new vehicle production. They are designed to high quality, made with premium materials that ensure a high degree of servicing reliability and come with a warranty. Along with quality assurance, there are many benefits to using genuine air and cabin filters. These include performance, both in terms of cabin comfort and engine efficiency, air quality, and increased protection and longer service life. Genuine air filters are engineered for reliable performance, their uniform air flow characteristics, a high retention capacity, and an ability to precisely regulate air flow resistance. They are perfectly adapted to their respective engines as they are set up to interact with other engine components to supply a particulate-free, precisely measured air-fuel mixture. This helps guarantee maximum engine performance and fuel efficiency, while complying with strict emissions requirements. The high-grade moisture resistant filter paper and flame-retardant materials used in production help to ensure a longer service life. This also contributes to driving comfort by dampening air intake sounds and ensuring proper noise protection during journeys. Genuine cabin filters offer a high degree of safety and occupant protection by feeding only clean fresh air into the vehicle. They also reduce the likelihood of window fogging. They achieve this by removing nearly 100% of pollen spores and contaminant particles from the filtered air, helping in turn to reduce allergy symptoms and enhance the wellbeing of occupants in the vehicle. In addition, due to a large filtering surface and an optimised folding technique, genuine cabin filters are particularly resistant to high and low temperatures, humidity and chemical agents, resulting in an increased service life. Furthermore, the high-grade activated carbon in the filters converts harmful ozone almost completely into oxygen, making for a cleaner and fresher cabin environment and more enjoyable journeys.
