Every industry is striving to reduce its environmental impact and carbon footprint. The car service industry is also committed to adopting sustainable and eco-friendly practices to protect the environment.
According to the World Economic Forum (WEF), transportation was the largest producer of energy-related CO2 emissions, accounting for 24% in 2018. It is reported that 74.5% of transport emissions come from road vehicles.
Here are some of the eco-friendly summer car care measures adopted by Carcility, the car service in Dubai:
Water Consumption: Traditional car washes involve the use of large quantities of water, approximately 150 liters per wash. Nowadays, new cleaning products and solutions that minimize water requirements are utilized for car washing. Specialized cleaning products and techniques are employed to remove dirt, dust, and grime from the car’s surface. Cleaning sprays and concentrates are used for waterless cleaning. They contain a combination of surfactants, lubricants, and cleaning agents that help break down and encapsulate dirt and contaminants on the car’s surface. Waterless car wash products also contain protective agents that leave a wax-like or hydrophobic coating on the car’s surface.
Fluid Recycling: Carcility uses genuine car engine oil and other fluids and filters to ensure the optimum performance of the engine and to prevent pollution. Car fluids such as engine oil and coolant are recycled and disposed of in an eco-friendly manner. The auto care industry is adopting practices that reduce waste generation and promote recycling.
Air Filters: Cleaning car air filters is an essential task undertaken during summer car service at Carcility. Clogged air filters can affect the quality and quantity of air entering the engine, thereby hindering proper fuel combustion. Congested oil filters can lead to reduced oil pressure, causing engine damage and increased carbon emissions.
Tyre Maintenance: Car Tyre wear and tear increase during the summer, making tyre rotation, balancing, and alignment critical for a safe ride. The tread depth must be examined, and tyre replacement should be considered in cases of excessive wear and tear. The condition of the car tyres and proper air inflation are important factors that affect fuel efficiency and road grip.
