MotorVac Technologies Expands Facilities to Meet Strong Product Demand


    SANTA ANA, Calif.--Feb. 19, 1999--MotorVac Technologies Inc. Friday announced that the company recently added 10,000 square feet to its facilities by occupying the building adjacent to its current facility.
    This move will expand the company's manufacturing and warehousing facilities to meet anticipated increased demand for the company's products.
    "Our company's expected increase in the rate of growth has made this expansion necessary," said Lee W. Melody, president and chief executive officer of MotorVac. "There is higher demand for both our core products and our new products, including the TRANSTECH(R) II automatic transmission fluid exchanger. Our Automotive Solutions division, which markets our Carbon Tune line of products, has been successful in penetrating the automotive quick-service market, and this also requires additional space."
    MotorVac Technologies designs, develops, assembles and markets unique technological solutions for the service and repair of automotive fluid systems. Product lines include specialty chemicals and shop equipment for servicing fuel systems and transmission systems. MotorVac's products are distributed to service shops, fleets and government agencies in more than 70 countries worldwide.
