Happy World Photography Day! 📸

There’s more to product photography than pointing a camera and pressing the button!

Behind many of the images and content you see from ELTA and our brands is Alex Davis, the man behind our social media and much of the content we share.

These photos show Alex working behind the scenes on a Lucas product group shot; one you may recognise from our recent invitation to Automechanika Frankfurt.

Getting the perfect shot takes a bit of moving, tweaking, stepping back… and occasionally saying, “let’s try that again!”

But great product photography is about more than making things look good.

For motor factors, garages and customers, clear and accurate images can help identify products, compare options and make the right buying decisions.

That’s why we put the time in to make sure our products look as good on screen as they do in the box.

Here’s to the people behind the camera who help bring our brands to life! 📸

A whole lot of VXPRO, ready to go 👀

This is just a glimpse inside the FG7 Ltd warehouse in Ireland, where shelves are packed with VXPRO products ready to support independent motor factors across Ireland and Northern Ireland.

As a long-standing approved supplier to FG7, we’re proud to be part of a network that’s committed to strengthening independent businesses through buying power, exceptional service and access to the products they need.

And with strong logistical and technical support behind the range, members can count on getting the right parts where they need them, when they need them.

That’s what championing the aftermarket looks like.

We’re not just a distributor…

The launch of PartASSIST marks another important step in our commitment to Champion the Aftermarket.

As a family-owned business, we understand the challenges facing the independent automotive aftermarket because we're part of it. Every decision we make is driven by a simple goal: helping our customers succeed.

Champion the Aftermarket is more than supplying high-quality, OE-matching components with the coverage workshops and factors need. It's about providing the tools, expertise and support that make everyday business easier.

That's why we've developed the ELTA ASSIST programme. From helping customers stock the right products and access expert technical advice to building stronger brands and sourcing hard-to-find parts, our growing range of support services is designed to help the independent aftermarket work smarter, solve problems faster and keep vehicles on the road.

StockASSIST:
We know that stocking the right sense and control components isn't always easy, so we're here to help with StockASSIST. Our tailored stock pack recommendations are designed around your budget, using our market-leading automotive data and industry expertise to guide you toward the most rewarding choices.

TechASSIST:
Our dedicated product support service. With modern engine management systems becoming increasingly complex, even identifying the correct part for a vehicle can be a challenge.

With TechASSIST we offer expert support for not only to our distributors, but-crucially-directly to the technicians and garages fitting our components via phone or WhatsApp.

BrandASSIST:
Dealer networks have the backing of full-service branding agencies. Why shouldn't you?

BrandASSIST grants you direct access to our in-house marketing team, ready to provide bespoke materials, campaigns, and creative support that meet your exact needs. Consider us an extension of your business. We're here to help you succeed.

PartASSIST:
Some components simply aren't available through the aftermarket. PartASSIST is a specialist service for motor factors, buying groups and distributors, helping source, develop and manufacture new-to-market, obsolete, discontinued, or hard to find components.

Backed by our global manufacturing network and aftermarket expertise, PartASSIST helps bring hard-to-source parts back into production, enabling customers to expand their range, meet demand and unlock new opportunities.

A new month brings new opportunities, and this August we're taking another significant step forward in our mission to Champion the Aftermarket.

We're proud to introduce PartASSIST, the fourth service in the ELTA ASSIST programme and a major new pillar of support for the aftermarket.

Not every component is easy to source. Some have become obsolete, others are no longer manufactured, and many simply aren't available through the UK aftermarket. When that happens, it can mean lost opportunities, frustrated customers and vehicles left off the road.

That's where PartASSIST makes the difference.

Powered by our global manufacturing network and decades of technical and aftermarket expertise, PartASSIST aims to help bring unavailable, obsolete and bespoke components back into production. From identifying the right solution to managing development and manufacturing, our team works closely with customers to make previously unavailable parts available once again.

It's more than a sourcing service. It's another way we're investing in the future of the independent aftermarket, helping distributors and motor factors expand their offering, support more customers and keep more vehicles moving.

If there's a part you can't find, let's change that together.

When a vehicle comes in for new brake discs and pads, the focus is usually on the obvious wear components.

But what about the brake disc splash shields?

These often-overlooked components spend their lives exposed to road salt, moisture, dirt and debris, meaning it's not uncommon to find them heavily corroded, damaged or even missing altogether. Yet they continue to play an important role by helping to protect brake discs, calipers and ABS sensors from contamination, while supporting the longevity of the braking system.

That's why we've invested in expanding the VXPRO Brake Disc Splash Shield range, with 310+ part numbers covering more than 7,145 vehicle applications. Manufactured to OE-equivalent standards and backed by a 5-Year Warranty, the range gives motor factors and distributors access to a product that's increasingly in demand as vehicles stay on the road for longer.

It's time to stop treating splash shields as an afterthought.

👉 View the range: https://lnkd.in/etCZnUxi

We believe it's the components that are often forgotten that can make the biggest difference. By helping customers complete the job properly, you're not only improving the repair; you're also creating valuable additional sales opportunities.
