Fundraising for Breast Cancer Care

The UK's largest manufacturer of aftermarket catalytic converters has been 'going pink' to raise money during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Colleagues at Denmead-based European Exhaust and Catalyst (EEC) have raised £250.00 by spending a day wearing pink clothing, baking and winning home-cooked pink treats in a pink-prize raffle and making donations for the charity Breast Cancer Care.

It was embraced throughout the organisation, including one welder choosing to spray his helmet bright pink for the day whilst manufacturing catalytic converters.

Paul Clark, Managing Director, commented: "It’s important to raise awareness amongst our staff throughout the UK, and to make a positive contribution to an excellent charity. After seeing everyone embrace the spirit of the day, EEC has added to the donations made by staff to ensure we are making a difference."

The charity cares for over 50,000 people who are annually diagnosed with breast cancer, and donations help fund vital services, such as a helpline, support groups and work in hospitals.

How to understand Diesel Particulate Filters

EEC has been working hard to increase the industry knowledge of Diesel Particulate Filters, with a number of training days across the UK.

We have been working with our distributors to improve customer awareness of DPF's and how they work with the complete emissions system. One recent session was presented to a sales force of over 100 people, who are now confidently promoting this product group to their customers.

The training covers how the filter works, diagnosing faults, understanding guidelines on how to replace a unit and how to use the EEC DPF Reset Tool most effectively.

Paul Clark, Managing Director, comments: "Correctly diagnosing the fault and following manufacturers guidelines are paramount to ensuring longevity of the replacement unit, and to save on cost by replacing components unnecessary."

Firmly committed to helping our customers learn more about the emission system, EEC technical trainers are available to visit your customers, spend time with your sales and support staff, and visit shows and events to help you. 

With over 24 years experience of manufacturers training throughout Europe, we are the fully qualified experts.  All our training programmes are tailored to the customers skill set, with all delegates receiving a certificate and bespoke email and telephone technical support ongoing.

For more details on our training, our DPFs and the industry unique EEC DPF Reset Tool, please visit www.eurocats.co.uk. 

Happy 70th to our Chairman

The team at EEC will be celebrating this Friday as our founder celebrates an impressive milestone.

John Clark, Chairman of European Exhaust and Catalyst, celebrates his 70th birthday this 28th September 2012.

With over 40 years experience in the automotive exhaust business, Mr Clark identified a niche market for aftermarket catalytic converters and founded European Exhaust and Catalyst Ltd in October 1997.

He has continued his business ambitions ever since to build the UK's largest family-run manufacturer of automotive emission products.

As a well-regarded figure in the aftermarket industry, if you would like to wish John 'many happy returns', we are sure he would welcome your email at jclark@eurocats.co.uk.
