Workshops rush to register for NGK’s new BoxClever App

Workshops were quick to sign up for NGK’s new BoxClever App when they visited the company’s stand at this week’s MechanEx Show at Sandown Park.

The App enables members of the ignition and sensor specialist’s BoxClever independent garage loyalty scheme to check their points balance, browse the gift range, redeem points and win prizes instantly, all from their mobile phones. It also includes links to NGK’s new and recently improved PartFinder website accessed with just two clicks from the App’s homepage.

NGK was giving visitors 1000 free points if they registered for the App at the show with those who did join also going into a draw with the chance to win an additional 25,000, 50,000 or 100,000 points.

Workshops were also eager to obtain copies of NGK’s two new product catalogues – Spark Plug & Diesel Glow Plug 2021/22 and 2021/22 Ignition Coils & Lead Sets – which are packed with all the information required for installers to select the right parts for millions of vehicles on the road.

The Spark Plug & Diesel Glow Plug 2021/22 catalogue includes spark plug upgrades and is published with a photo of racing driver and NGK Ambassador Nic Hamilton on the front cover. Comprising 184 pages, it includes 28 new spark plugs and six new glow plugs, with 6917 applications.

While the company’s new 144-page 2021/22 Ignition Coils & Lead Sets catalogue features six new ignition coils and 294-part numbers with 3211 applications. Lead sets are included in a combined catalogue for the first time with 43-part numbers with 445 applications.

Mark Hallam, Marketing Manager, NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd, said: “MechanEx was the first time we had exhibited at a major automotive trade show since before last year’s first national lockdown and we were delighted to see so many people on our stand.

“Our new App proved to be extremely popular with many visitors registering at the show and taking advantage of our special points offer. Our stand also featured giant mock-ups of our new catalogues which also created a lot of interest with enquiries from visitors keeping our staff busy on both days of the show.”
