Oils, lubes and additives 39 www.aftermarketonline.net FEBRUARY 2026 Duckhams Oils CEO Mike Bewsey has welcomed being awarded SIRIM Certification in recognition of product quality. “This prestigious certification from SIRIM QAS International is more than just a badge — it’s a guarantee,” Bewsey said. “It confirms our unwavering commitment to authenticity, quality, and consumer protection in the engine oil industry in our global markets.” The certification from Malaysia-based testing and inspections body, SIRIM QAS, came after Duckhams unveiled its co-branded two-wheeler oils, developed in collaboration with JDT Lubricants in Malaysia in 2025. Firms involved in the manufacturing, importing, exhibiting, selling and advertising of engine oils in Malaysia must comply with strict regulations that came into force in 2025. SIRIM certification was introduced in response to growing concerns over counterfeit engine oils in domestic and international markets. https://duckhams.com/ Smooth running through the winter months www.jlmlubricants.co.uk GARAGE APPROVED As temperatures continue to drop and vehicles face the challenges of the winter months, workshops across the UK are geared up for one of their busiest and most demanding seasons. From cold starts to reduced fuel efficiency, harsh weather conditions can quickly take their toll on engines and emissions systems. Cataclean says that is where its 8-in1 fuel and exhaust system cleaner comes in — providing garages and motorists with a simple, effective way to keep vehicles running smoothly, efficiently and cleanly throughout the colder months. Winter driving brings a unique set of challenges. Engines struggle to reach optimal temperature, fuel doesn’t burn as efficiently and carbon deposits begin to build up faster in the combustion chamber, injectors and exhaust system. Cataclean provides workshops a quick and cost-effective preventative solution. Its patented 8-in1 formula works through the entire fuel and exhaust system - cleaning injectors, combustion chambers, DPFs, EGR valves, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters. This leads to improved fuel economy, better engine performance, lower emissions and protection against costly component damage. For garages, Cataclean is an easy upselling opportunity that requires no extra labour or workshop time. https://cataclean.com/ 'XFNKDPV KDLOV SURGXFWV FHUWLᎮ FDWLRQ Liau Tan Teng of Duckhams Oils with Aminudin Bin Abd Aziz of SIRIM QAS International
