Choosing the right coolant – the key to effective vehicle cooling

Coolant plays a key role in maintaining the right operating temperature of the engine, preventing it from overheating and protecting against corrosion and scale deposits.

The quality of the coolant is directly related to its chemical composition and physical properties. High-quality coolants contain corrosion inhibitors that protect metal parts of the cooling system from rusting. In addition, a good quality coolant should be resistant to high temperatures, should not foam or create deposits that could inhibit the flow of liquid within the system. Currently, there are coolants available on the market produced using various technologies, such as IAT (Inorganic Additive Technology), OAT (Organic Acid Technology) and HOAT (Hybrid Organic Acid Technology). Each of these technologies offers different properties that can be better suited to specific types of engines and cooling systems.

Vehicle manufacturer approvals constitute a confirmation that a given coolant meets the requirements specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Obtaining approval is a demanding process that includes a number of tests, including testing the physical and chemical properties of the liquid, its compatibility with materials used in the cooling system and protection against corrosion.

When choosing a coolant, you should consider not only its price, but above all its quality, production technology and vehicle manufacturer approvals. Regular inspection and replacement of the coolant in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations is the basis for the correct operation and longevity of the cooling system.

Petrygo coolants and coolant concentrates are products with numerous approvals and they meet the requirements of numerous vehicle manufacturers. The well-recognizable packaging of Petrygo products has gained a modern label design, distinguished by the graphic clarity of the communicated content. This consists of appropriately placed information, thanks to which the customer can easily identify the product and select the one that best suits their needs. On the front of the label there is information about the approvals held, the fluid technology, miscibility with other liquids as well as confirmation of anti-corrosion properties. This makes it easier to select a coolant for a specific vehicle. Thanks to the use of pictograms, distinguishing the purpose of products will be much easier, and the variety of colours will improve not only the appearance of the packaging, but above all their readability.

The change resulting from redesigning the labels on the product packaging is an example of the evolution that ORLEN OIL is undergoing. A unified and at the same time complete product portfolio of operating liquids will provide consumers with clarity and transparency of the offer.
