Kalimex projects high sales for JLM Lubricants

Kalimex’s Dee Blick highlights why JLM Lubricants’ products should be flying off motor factors’ shelves in 2021.


At the JLM online conference in December 2020, the rallying cry to distributors was that 2021 was set to be the year in which professional motor factors were going to see a big demand from their trade customers for JLM Lubricants’ products. If you have yet to experience the profit power of the JLM product range, I hope that by the end of this article, you’ll be contacting Kalimex to become a JLM ‘super seller’ stockist in 2021. The products in the range enable factors to target trade customers with a product range that is developed for the trade and tested by the trade.

So, why are technicians ‘repeat purchasing’ JLM products?


In the last 10 months, we’ve seen a steep rise in technicians ordering JLM products from their stockists and placing repeat orders. The pandemic has seen driving patterns change, with motorists keeping their car on the road for longer. ‘Repair, don’t replace’ is the new normal, and because of stop-start, short journey driving, cars are turning up at workshops in their numbers with problems surrounding badly blocked DPFs. With JLM Lubricants’ products, a technician is able to clean the dirtiest of DPFs without removing it, and many now recommend JLM products for customers to use in between servicing to keep the DPF in tip top condition. Barry Lawson, DPF Doctor at Ewan Lawson Motors, commented, “We have the entire range of JLM Lubricants’ DPF products. Which product to use comes down to what we find during the assessment. If a DPF is slightly outside of its specification, a can of the JLM Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner added to the fuel tank, along with an extended road test, is an excellent way of bringing it back in line to the specification. We get vehicles in non- start conditions because the DPF is badly blocked. Here, we use the JLM Clean and Flush Pack. This is injected directly into the DPF using the JLM DPF Toolkit. Our JLM product orders have tripled in the last year alone. Good business for our stockist, good business for us!”

According to Darren Darling, The DPF Doctor and a brand ambassador for JLM Lubricants’ products, it’s easy to sell JLM products because they have a gold star reputation. Darren said, “JLM Lubricants make superb quality DPF products – designed for the trade and tested by the trade. Combined with our diagnostics experience, they enable us to offer a premium service to customers at a fair price. Our network of DPF specialists choose JLM products and the JLM professional toolkit for DPF cleaning because they work first time, are superbly engineered, and are proven to fix even the most challenging of vehicles.”

You can recommend JLM products to your customers with confidence, knowing that respected specialists like Darren recommend them. In 2020, the opportunity existed for you to promote JLM Lubricants’ products, but now, it’s even bigger! Why? Because motorists want to keep their existing cars on the road for longer with repairs that don’t cost a fortune, and they want to use products that they can use in between servicing to keep their car in good condition. On top of this, technicians want products they can trust to work, products that keep the income in their workshop and their customers’ bills down.
