New Valeo Products and Award at Rematec 2025

<h2>Winner of Public Choice Award</h2>
From April 8 to 10, 2025, Valeo took part in Rematec, the world's largest automotive remanufacturing exhibition, held at RAI Amsterdam, Netherlands.
In addition to launching new parts, Valeo won the Public Choice Award for Best Reman, after emerging as the clear winner with a total of 2,057 votes.
The public’s choice award was fully supported by the 2025 Rematec jury, who recognized Valeo as both “a major automotive parts manufacturer and a key player in the aftermarket.” 
 
<h2>Partnering with Industry Leaders on New Products</h2>
Valeo is now extending its offer to include the remanufacturing of high voltage and electronic parts. 
During the week, Valeo presented what is one of the largest ranges of remanufactured products on the market. This included launching three new high-tech reman parts:
In collaboration with Stellantis, Valeo is launching in the first semester of 2025 a remanufactured LED headlamp—the first of its kind from Valeo—along with a display screen developed at Valeo’s Circular Electronics Lab in Nevers, France.
Partnering with The Remakers, Valeo will launch in the second half of 2025 a brand new remanufactured inverter for the Renault Zoe.
Remanufacturing innovations such as these align with a new era of increased electronics in modern vehicles. 
In 2024, Valeo also launched on the independent aftermarket a reman pneumatic concentric actuator for commercial vehicles, and in 2025, Valeo will be launching the DQ250 Double Wet Clutch (DWC) covering millions of vehicles.
 
<h2>Valeo Reman, Good to Better Preserve Resources</h2>
Reman is one of Valeo's key circular initiatives for the aftermarket, and is part of the 'I Care for the Planet' program—Valeo’s commitment to progressively reducing the environmental impact of the automotive aftermarket.
By reusing materials, Valeo’s remanufacturing limits new resource extraction and industrial waste. 
At Valeo, remanufactured products include up to 80% of reused materials. With 55 million tonnes of electronic waste generated every year, discarding electronic and electrical parts because of a single faulty component is both wasteful and environmentally unsustainable. 
In the words of Christophe Le Ligné, Valeo Group R&amp;D VP and Light CTO:
“At Valeo, we are deeply committed to remanufacturing. Our ambition is to double the number of remanufactured products to 2 million by 2030, and, at the same time, we are expanding our range to offer more electric and electronic products. This major milestone will be achieved through our ability at building strong partnerships within our ecosystem, to deliver remanufactured high-tech products.”
 
<h2>Valeo Reman, as Good as New</h2>
Every manufactured part undergoes the same processes as new ones:
<ul><li>Each collected part is cleaned and disassembled</li>
	<li>Components are individually controlled and then repaired or replaced if needed</li>
	<li>The product is reassembled and tested to stringent automotive standards</li>
</ul> 
<h2>Expanding and Promoting Circular Economy in the Aftermarket</h2>
Valeo’s 40+ years’ experience in remanufacturing electrical and mechanical products includes starters and alternators, compressors, brake calipers, DMF, heavy duty clutches and more recently front camera for passenger cars and even eMotors and Batteries for Ebikes.
Valeo offers online tutorials via its Valeo Tech Academy, including three new interactive modules for workshops. 
Its 2025 Reman Partner Program also ranks some European distributors Bronze to Gold, rewarding them with exclusive bonuses, services, and VIP access to events.

&lt;h2&gt;Winner of Public Choice Award&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From April 8 to 10, 2025, Valeo took part in Rematec, the world&#039;s largest automotive remanufacturing exhibition, held at RAI Amsterdam, Netherlands.&lt;/p&gt;

Spring Clean Your Car: Get Ready for the Road with Valeo Wipers

Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or just preparing for the warmer months, Valeo has you covered.
Follow this spring cleaning guide to ensure your car is safe, clean, and ready for any adventure.
 
<h2>1. Check Your Wiper Blades for Clear Visibility</h2>
Over time, wiper blades can wear out, leading to reduced visibility during rain. If the rubber is cracked or worn, they won’t clear your windshield properly, increasing the risk of impaired vision.
Fortunately, wipers are quick and easy to change. Visit your local garage or do it yourself. Don’t forget to check your screenwash levels and refill them if needed.
Valeo Tip: For optimal performance, choose Valeo Silencio™ wipers, designed for durability and perfect fit.
 
<h2>2. Test Your Lights for Safe Driving</h2>
Lights are essential for visibility and safety on the road. Before setting off, check all your lights, including:
<ul><li>Brake lights</li>
	<li>Headlights (low and high beams)</li>
	<li>Fog lights</li>
	<li>Reverse lights</li>
	<li>Indicators</li>
</ul>Ensure that all bulbs are working correctly, and replace any that are dim or faulty. Properly functioning lights make you more visible to other drivers and help you see clearly at night.
 
<h2>3. Inspect Your Brakes for Safety</h2>
Your brakes are one of the most crucial safety features of your car. Make sure they are in top condition by having a trusted mechanic check the brake pads and discs for wear. Additionally, check your brake fluid levels:
<ul><li>A low fluid level may indicate a leak or worn brake pads.</li>
	<li>The fluid should be a light golden brown color.</li>
	<li>Brake fluid should be changed every two years.</li>
	<li>Properly maintained brakes ensure you can stop safely and control your vehicle’s speed, giving you peace of mind on the road.</li>
</ul> 
<h2>4. Check Essential Fluids for Smooth Driving</h2>
<ul><li>To keep your car running smoothly, make sure the following fluids are at the right levels:</li>
	<li>Engine Oil: Ensures proper lubrication and prevents engine wear.</li>
	<li>Coolant: Prevents your engine from overheating.</li>
</ul>Check these fluids 2-3 times a year or before any long journey to avoid breakdowns and ensure optimal performance.
 
<h2>5. Inspect Your Tyres for Safety and Fuel Efficiency</h2>
Properly maintained tyres improve handling, reduce fuel consumption, and enhance safety. Before heading out on a road trip:
<ul><li>Check tyre pressure according to the manufacturer’s recommendations (usually found on the driver’s door frame).</li>
	<li>Inspect tyre tread for wear and replace tyres if they are worn out.</li>
	<li>Ensure your tyres are less than 5 years old, as rubber degrades over time.</li>
	<li>Tyre Pressure Tip: Remember that your car's load and road type can affect tyre pressure. Adjust accordingly for a safe and comfortable ride.</li>
</ul> 
<h2>6. Clean Your Car’s Interior for a Fresh Start</h2>
Spring cleaning isn’t just for your home! A clean car interior enhances comfort and hygiene. Disinfect frequently touched surfaces such as:
<ul><li>Steering wheel</li>
	<li>Gear stick</li>
	<li>Touch screens</li>
	<li>Buttons and switches</li>
</ul>A well-maintained car not only keeps you safe but also ensures a more enjoyable driving experience. Spring clean your car with Valeo’s trusted products and hit the road with confidence. 
 
Start your spring cleaning now!

&lt;p&gt;Whether you&#039;re planning a weekend getaway or just preparing for the warmer months, Valeo has you covered.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Follow this spring cleaning guide to ensure your car is safe, clean, and ready for any adventure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;1. Check Your Wiper Blades for Clear Visibility&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Over time, wiper blades can wear out, leading to reduced visibility during rain. If the rubber is cracked or worn, they won’t clear your windshield properly, increasing the risk of impaired vision.&lt;/p&gt;

<h2>Driving Sustainability with Reman</h2>
Valeo’s Reman offer operates on the principle of the circular economy, a core pillar of "I Care 4 the Planet," Valeo's sustainability program aimed at reducing the environmental impact of its aftermarket activities.
 
<h2>A Comprehensive and Powerful Reman Product Range</h2>
With over 6,000 remanufactured parts, Valeo offers an extensive portfolio, focusing on four major product categories: starters/alternators, brake calipers, A/C compressors and clutches for Commercial Vehicles.
These parts are remanufactured at Valeo facilities across Europe, with the main hub in Czechowice, Poland.
 
<h2>As Good as New</h2>
With Valeo Reman, customers can exchange used parts for fully remanufactured ones that perform like new.
Every part undergoes a rigorous process, including disassembly, cleaning, repair or replacement, reassembly, and testing.
Backed by the same warranty as new parts, Valeo Reman products deliver reliable performance without compromise.
<h2> </h2>
<h2>Good for the Planet</h2>
Remanufacturing is a more sustainable alternative to traditional manufacturing. Valeo’s Reman process saves up to 80%* in raw materials and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 80%* compared to producing new parts.
By choosing remanufactured products, customers contribute to the circular economy, where end-of-life components are reintroduced into the supply chain.
This reduces the need to extract new natural resources and helps minimize landfill waste, creating a significant environmental benefit.
* according to Valeo’s internal estimations
 
<h2>Good for Your Budget</h2>
Valeo Reman provides a cost-effective solution without sacrificing quality. By reusing materials, Valeo Reman parts are typically more affordable than the equivalent new Valeo parts. Both consumers and workshops benefit from significant savings, making remanufactured parts a smart, sustainable alternative to buying new parts.
 
<h2>Simple Core Deposit System</h2>
Valeo’s core deposit system ensures a smooth and transparent return process. 
This is supported by a deposit system: a surcharge is added to the purchase price, which is refundable once the core is returned. 
Customers return eligible used parts, receive a clear refund per part type, and are reimbursed within 72** hours.
This streamlined approach guarantees the continuous availability of cores needed to sustain the remanufacturing process—because no cores mean no reman.  By keeping materials in circulation, this model embodies the principles of the circular economy, reducing waste and conserving resources for a more sustainable future.

Leading the Way in Electrification

<h2>Showcasing Cutting-Edge Electrification and Innovation</h2>
Made up of three parts—a plenary conference in Budapest, onsite workshops and the visit of Valeo’s Veszprém Factory, a multi-products site that specializes in the production of high-voltage technologies and systems for well-known automotive car makers. 
 The EV Tech Days showcased Valeo’s approach to High Voltage Powertrain Electrification and its associated Thermal Management,48V Hybrid Technology, and EV Training with Valeo's Tech Academy.
 
<h2>The Future is Getting Brighter</h2>
By 2030, 93% of all new cars will include a form of electrification and one-third of the European car parc will consist of electrified vehicles (either fully electric or hybrid).
 
This is good news. Electrification is emerging as the most viable, affordable, and energy-efficient solution to reducing the carbon footprint of the automotive industry, which currently stands at about 18% of global CO2 emissions.
 
<h2>Levels of Electrification</h2>
When discussing “electrification,” many immediately think of fully electric vehicles, but it encompasses much, much more.
 
The current and future car parcs include multiple levels of electrification: low-voltage systems like 48V mild hybrids (combining small electric motors with internal combustion engines for improved fuel efficiency), high-voltage systems like 400V and 800V for both full and plug-in hybrids, and fully electric vehicles.
 
Valeo’s strength lies in its ability to support all of these levels of electrification.
 
<h2>A Pioneer in Electrification</h2>
As a pioneer in electrification for over 20 years, Valeo has continually introduced innovative solutions for electrified vehicles. A brief history shows that:
 
In 2004, Valeo created the iStARS system, a belt starter/alternator that optimizes Stop-Start functionality.
In 2012, Valeo launched its 48V Belt Starter Generator (iBSG), providing mild-hybrid solutions.
In 2016, Valeo oversaw the creation of the Valeo Siemens eAutomotive JV.
And now, in 2024, Valeo is set to produce the next generation of “rare-earth-free” electric motors with Renault.
 
As of today, one-third of the world’s vehicles are equipped with Valeo electrics, from alternators right through to high-voltage systems.
 
<h2>Leveling Up Mechanics’ Skills</h2>
To meet the evolving needs of the industry, Valeo launched the Valeo Tech Academy, an innovative training program that offers both digital and in-person learning.
 
With one in two mechanics unable to maintain or repair electric vehicles, Valeo is committed to leveling up and supporting the aftermarket beyond just supplying spare parts.
 
Ultimately, Valeo’s goal is very simple—to help build the sustainable mobility of tomorrow. And over the course of the EV Tech Days, Valeo was able to demonstrate and share its simple vision for the future.

<h2>Retrofitting for the Planet</h2>
Retrofitting transforms an I.C.E. vehicle into an electric one by replacing the petrol/diesel engine and fuel tank with an electric motor and battery.
 
Valeo's '<a href="https://www.valeoservice.com/en-com/i-care-planet">I Care for the Planet</a>' program aims to reduce the environmental impact of the automotive aftermarket. Thanks to its parts for EV, Valeo contributes to making the switch to electric vehicles easier.
<h2>Regulations to Restrictions</h2>
Around the world, regulations for emissions have become increasingly severe, and major cities are implementing low-emission zones — and sometimes even outright diesel bans — to combat air pollution and meet climate targets.
Since most light commercial vehicles (LCVs) run on diesel, the ban on entry into cities has a direct impact on many businesses. In order to continue operating, LCV drivers, fleet owners, and small businesses are required to urgently switch to electric vehicles. Since buying new electric vehicles is expensive, retrofit is the perfect alternative.
 
<h2>A Solution is at Hand</h2>
To help businesses survive in the city, Valeo, a leading automotive supplier in Electrification, offers a range of products and solutions for electric vehicles (EVs) that can also be used for retrofitting conventional vehicles into EVs:
<ul><li>e-motors</li>
	<li>OBC DCDC</li>
	<li>Inverters</li>
	<li>HV heaters</li>
	<li>Electric driven compressors (EDC)</li>
</ul>These components can all be integrated into retrofit projects and help convert Internal Combustion Engine (I.C.E.) LCVs into electric ones.
 
<h2>Benefits of Retrofitting</h2>
<ul><li>Economics: The cost saving of converting existing vehicles into electric vehicles is estimated to be about 50% the cost of buying a new eLCV*. Not only is buying new electric LCVs expensive, there are also few electric options available.</li>
</ul> 
<ul><li>Environment: Beyond the economic considerations, retrofitting also contributes to automotive decarbonization. Retrofitting LCVs saves at least 50% CO2 emissions over 10 years*. And by not scrapping the vehicle, retrofitting also contributes to the circular economy.</li>
</ul> 
<ul><li>Government Support: In recognition of how retrofitting can be important in transitioning to cleaner transportation, governments are increasingly offering incentives and support programs to facilitate retrofitting. What’s more, some governments, like France, are gradually reducing subsidies for buying new electric vehicles, which further enhances the economic appeal of retrofitting.    </li>
</ul>          *source ADEME
<h2>Converting I.C.E cars into electric vehicles for a more sustainable future</h2>
In Europe, there are more than 30 million active LCVs facing the challenge of entering urban spaces. With its automotive electrification expertise and established relationships, Valeo is well-placed to support the retrofit industry and help convert part of the LCV car parc into electric vehicles for the future.

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Retrofitting for the Planet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Retrofitting transforms an I.C.E. vehicle into an electric one by replacing the petrol/diesel engine and fuel tank with an electric motor and battery.&lt;/p&gt;

VALEO’S NEW E-PERFORMANCE BRAKE PADS RANGE

<h2>An Electrifying Marketplace</h2>
With 222 references and 92% coverage (Hybrid, EV, and PHEV), Valeo’s new brake pads range will account for over 15 million European vehicles.
 
As electric vehicles become increasingly popular, the number of vehicles on the road continues to grow. According to Frost &amp; Sullivan’s report “European PHEV/BEV Aftermarket Growth Opportunities”, by 2030, 84% of vehicles made in Europe will be electrified and heading towards either 48V or fully electric.
 
<h2>High Grade Materials</h2>
While combustion engines are noisy and a bumpy ride, drivers of electric vehicles are able to get the exact driving experience everyone longs for—silent and comfortable. They also get peace of mind. Valeo’s E-performance brake pads use soft friction materials – composed of carbons and ceramics – which absorb noise and vibrations made during braking.
 
Because of these soft materials, 20-25% less brake dust is produced each time the brake is applied, and the brake pads last longer, helping to avoid vibrations in the steering wheel.
 
Added to that, Valeo’s EV brake pads incorporate NRS®  technology between the friction material and the back plate. This reduces the risk of delamination and increases durability.
 
<h2>Better for the Environment, Better for You…</h2>
EV is better for the environment, and governments are starting to take notice. From diesel bans in European cities to thermal engine bans across entire countries, the automotive industry is changing.
 
As a leader in electrification, Valeo aims to deliver the best possible offer to customers with electrified vehicles, while supporting those drivers who are making the transition to electric. Brake pads are a significant part of that change.
 
“The strong order intake recorded proves that Valeo has the right positioning and technologies in a rapidly changing sector. This means that our customers trust us to support them in this transformation.” – Christophe Périllat, Valeo CEO
 
More to Come in 2024!
As extensive as Valeo’s new brake pads range is, there is no stopping there. An extension of 30 more references will be launched in Q3 of 2024, covering even more vehicles.
 
When it comes to EV, Valeo has what you need…!

&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;An Electrifying Marketplace&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With&lt;strong&gt; 222 &lt;/strong&gt;references and &lt;strong&gt;92% &lt;/strong&gt;coverage (Hybrid, EV, and PHEV), Valeo’s new brake pads range will account for over 15 million European vehicles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As electric vehicles become increasingly popular, the number of vehicles on the road continues to grow.

VALEO’S REMAN TRUCK CLUTCHES, REMANUFACTURING THE FUTURE

<h2>Changing Global Perspectives</h2>
The importance of reusing resources cannot be overstated and directly impacts our ability to sustainably meet the needs of current and future generations.
With these thoughts in mind, Valeo’s Aftermarket sustainability strategy, I Care 4 the Planet, has put a huge emphasis on the remanufacturing process – a process of which Valeo’s aftermarket division has more than 40 years’ experience; and nowhere is this experience better demonstrated than in the remanufacturing of clutches for commercial vehicles, a component that undergoes some of the toughest conditions of drive line.
 
<h2>As Good As New</h2>
In a nutshell, remanufacturing is the process of bringing back used products to their original condition through a series of rigorous inspections, replacement, reassembly and test of parts. In the case of CV clutches, it is a nine-fold process:
  1. Valeo collects the cores and sorts them
Then…
  2. They are disassembled
  3. Their components are tested
  4. And the good cores cleaned up
Next…
  5. They are remachined
  6. The clutches assembled
  7. And balanced and measured
Finally…
  8. The clutches are test controlled as if new
  9. And marked and packaged to sell
When completed, Valeo’s remanufactured clutches meet similar performance standards to completely new clutches, yet are composed of 80% reused materials, and according to Life Cycle Analysis, have a reduced carbon footprint of 50% to 80%. 
All this comes about as a result of saving on resources and energy by using readily available materials that don’t need to be extracted and transformed from their raw elements and can be processed in Valeo’s plants in France. 
As it stands, Valeo remanufactures a massive 800,000 car and commercial vehicle parts per year, but has the ambition to double this figure by 2030.
 
<h2>The Value of Valeo</h2>
By offering reman clutches on a wide range of truck models, from Mercedes to Scania to Iveco, Valeo aims to provide CV owners with a reliable and environmentally friendly alternative to purchasing new parts. And what’s more, with a 2-year warranty on unlimited mileage (as with Valeo’s new clutches), Valeo is offering customers one of the best deals on the market. 
At the end of the day, Valeo is doing its utmost to ensure that the future is a bright one, and believes remanufacturing to be a central column of that future. Tools such as Valeo’s award winning Truck Clutch Kit Finder allow professionals to identify the Reman alternative for each truck clutch kit and instantly put their ideals into practice. By providing good value, quality, and care, Valeo aims to make the finite a little more infinite…

<h2>A New Year’s Resolution</h2>
In the EU, where heavy duty commercial vehicles account for almost 80% of land freight transport – equal to almost 25% of the transport sector’s CO2 emissions – it’s more important than ever to find ways to cut waste and emissions.
From 1st of January, 2024, Valeo is implementing its core deposit scheme for Reman CV Clutch Kits in Europe. This comes as part of Valeo’s wider goal of accelerating the circular economy and thereby consuming as few new raw materials as possible.
<blockquote>
As Christophe Perillat, Valeo’s CEO, has said, “Decarbonization mobility must go hand in hand with greater circularity and resources preservation.”
</blockquote>
Fully optimizing the consumption of resources is an automotive aim in which Valeo is not alone. The whole road freight industry, from manufacturers to haulers, is committed to a more sustainable transport system.
Remanufacturing is one of the central pillars of Valeo’s 4R strategy, along with Recycle, Repair, and Robust design. It is also an integral part of Valeo’s multifaceted approach to sustainability: I Care 4 the Planet.
The core deposit scheme falls into both sustainability approaches and has simplicity at its core. The aim is to recover as many CV clutch kit cores from the market as possible in order to fuel Valeo’s remanufacturing production lines.
In a nutshell, the core deposit is a simple circular exchange system:
<img alt="Valeo CV Clutch Cores Scheme in 2024" class="ck-responsive-img" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fd367a26-af0c-4ab1-915e-270e30c708f2" loading="lazy" src="https://staging.assets.web4u.valeoservice.systems/d8/prod/s3fs-public/inline-images/body1-CV-Clutch-Cores-Scheme_3.png" width="317" height="289" />
 
 
Valeo’s CV core deposit system has been made to be simply understood, with only 3 core bands (T, U, V) and 2 different costs (100€ or 200€), as in the table below:
 
<img alt="Valeo CV Clutch Cores Scheme in 2024" class="ck-responsive-img" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d429ed07-3505-4ef2-871a-98681d283b66" loading="lazy" src="https://staging.assets.web4u.valeoservice.systems/d8/prod/s3fs-public/inline-images/body2-CV-Clutch-Cores-Scheme_1.png" width="965" height="462" />
<h2>Reverse Logistics System</h2>
Using a reverse logistics system that is quick and seamless, Valeo makes things easy for distributors, with a quick four week turnaround from collection pick-up to sorting report.
All that workshops need to do once the repair is completed is recover the cores, place them in the Valeo box, and then send them back to the distributor. The distributor stores them in a safe and dry place while Valeo ensures the reverse logistics from the collection of the cores to the deposit refund for all accepted cores.
<h2> 
Putting Down a Deposit on Our Future</h2>
To get the ball rolling along the distribution chain, Valeo is implementing an extensive support plan, augmented by a massive promotional programme during the first semester of 2024.
<h2> 
As Good As New</h2>
It truly can’t be overstated – reman CV clutches are AS GOOD AS NEW and have the same functional characteristics as new clutches. This is the reason they are offered with the very same 2-year warranty and unlimited mileage anywhere in Europe.
The very PROCESS of reman drives sustainability and the circular economy by decarbonising the CV Aftermarket while preserving resources. And come 2024, Valeo’s CV core deposit scheme will do just that!
Using a cleaner industrial process with less CO2 emissions, Valeo’s scheme perfectly fits with fleet sustainability initiatives. Moreover, compared with others available on the market, Valeo’s reman CV clutches are better priced than new clutches and benefit from a better life cycle cost too.
Add O.E. specs and original working conditions into the mix, and Valeo will be offering the market a product that is simply too good to pass up!
Come 2024, Valeo’s CV core deposit scheme plans to do just that!

From 1st of January, 2024, Valeo is implementing its core deposit scheme for Reman CV Clutch Kits in Europe.

<h2>Remanufacturing is a great Way 4ward</h2>
An important factor in reducing the automotive aftermarket’s impact on the environment is in creating a more sustainable product portfolio. A remaining product reuses, on average, 80% of the material, and according to life-cycle analysis, reduces carbon footprint on average by 50 to 80% in comparison with a new product.
In line with the aim to reach Carbon Neutrality by 2050, Valeo Service has ramped up its efforts in the Reman sector. As of November 2022, Valeo Service had 8,186 references in its European portfolio and, in 2023, will continue launching 500+ references on existing product families. On top of this, new and more technical product families will be released onto the market including the e-compressor, e-drive, and torque convertors, which will sit alongside traditional product categories such as clutches, starters &amp; alternators, and compressors.
<h2>Spreading the Word 
 </h2>
Launching new references alone, however, is of course not enough.
 
In 2022, in collaboration with their partners, Valeo Service used digital training sessions to successfully teach more than 100,000 automotive industry professionals. These sessions covered pure electrification topics (mild-hybrid technologies and “Basic” level of full electrification), EV associated products (such as Dual Dry Clutches, Dual Wet Clutches, and torque converters), and Reman. 
 
What’s more, Valeo Service has made identifying the Reman alternative for each truck clutch kit simpler than ever before, thanks to its digital tool, “Truck Clutch kit finder”. Frost &amp; Sullivan awarded it the title of European New Product Innovation in 2022.
<h2>Packaged 4 the Future</h2>
The next area of attention I Care 4 the Planet will focus on is the eradication of plastics and the reduction of ink consumption in packaging. These efforts go hand-in-hand with the increasing use of recycled materials, utilizing biodegradable materials, and of course, reducing the amount of packaging used in the first place.
<h2>Logically speaking, Logistics</h2>
<h2> </h2>
The final area I Care 4 the Planet has identified as crucial, going forwards, is that of logistics. Logistics naturally plays an important role in ensuring that goods and services reach customers in a timely and cost-effective manner. But a modern logistics system must also take the environment into account.
 
First, Valeo Service puts high attention on producing as close as possible to the markets where the products are distributed. In addition, Valeo Service is looking at reducing carbon emissions by developing direct deliveries to customers so as to avoid intermediate steps along the way. This approach is completed by supporting the Reforest Action association: Valeo Service plants a tree for each ton of direct delivery, helping to create a virtuous logistics distribution flow.
 
This being said, Valeo Servicing isn’t forgetting the small things and also plans to optimize transportation fill rates by consolidating shipments and improving the stackability of products. All of which will greatly reduce tons of CO2 emissions.
 
I Care 4 the Planet is not just about the big things, but also about dealing in the details. And going forwards, wherever the I Care 4 the Planet logo is seen, aftermarket professionals can be sure that they are working with products which put the environment first.

VALEO CELEBRATES 100 YEARS!

<h1>A BRIGHTER FUTURE</h1>
It is no secret that the automotive world is undergoing a major electric revolution – and Valeo sits at the very heart of it.
To reduce its carbon footprint, the European parc is being electrified through multiple initiatives – and by 2030, more than 30% of vehicles on the road are set to be electrified.
Many opportunities will appear in the aftermarket. New spare parts will be equipped in Hybrid and Electric vehicles, and a challenge such as accessing parts is going to be a top priority for actors working in the IAM.
The two domains that will be most impacted by electrification are Powertrain and Thermal Management. Valeo has already made huge advancements in both areas.
<ol><li>With the aim of providing more sustainable mobility solutions for the drivers of tomorrow, Automotive Powertrains are being completely overhauled. Valeo’s recent acquisition of Siemens eAutomotive has strengthened its position as the world leader in electrification. Valeo boasts a full range of low and high voltage electric powertrain solutions.</li>
	<li>In brand new vehicles, Thermal Management Systems control the temperature of both the cabin and the battery. 
	Once again, Valeo is an OE leader thanks to innovative thermal solutions invented for ICE, Hybrid, and Electric vehicles. Correctly functioning thermal management systems of electric and hybrid vehicles are essential in ensuring High Voltage Components function safely. This happens by cooling or heating High Voltage components, but also by ensuring that High Voltage batteries maintain an optimal temperature range – and with it, have a longer lifetime.</li>
</ol>By offering the aftermarket these new technologies for electrified vehicles, Valeo is helping steer the ongoing electric revolution. This strategy began in 2020, with the launch of the iBSG (Integrated Belt-driven Starter Generator) for Mild Hybrid Technologies, which was the very first one on the market.
This was soon followed in 2022 by the introduction of the DWC DMFs – technology that was recognized as hugely innovative in helping reduce the noise, vibration, and harshness associated with the start-stop mechanism of hybrid vehicles.
The most recent aftermarket innovation in electrification involves the launch of electric compressors — which are one of the key products in thermal management systems. 
By the end of 2023, Valeo will be launching new High Voltage components, including powertrain products such as inverters, OBCs (On Board Chargers), and eDrives. Thermal Management components that ensure the correct functioning of the battery (with chillers and battery blowers) will also be launched.
In addition to new product launches, Valeo offers a technical support program that includes fitting instructions, live training sessions, webinars, interactive presentations, and videos from the Valeo Tech@ssist free Online Technical web platform. This is available in more than eight languages.
Valeo is committed to the active development of its portfolio for Hybrid and Electric vehicles, including traditional and new product technologies. Valeo has already developed 4,500 maintenance parts.
The ambition is to reach 6,000 parts by the end of 2023.

BORN TO ELECTRIFY THE AUTOMOTIVE AFTERMARKET

VALEO AQUABLADE™: VALEO’S AWARD-WINNING WINDSHIELD WIPERS

<h2>Not just rubber and metal… water too</h2>
 
Never to be overlooked, wiper blades perform the most fundamental of functions in any vehicle—to give the driver maximum visibility when on the road. A clear view is a safer drive.
 
Often not considered until it’s too late, wiper blades can be so much more than just strips of rubber and metal. And with Valeo AquaBlade™, the French automotive giant, Valeo, has turned water into an ally, by helping drivers to see more clearly than ever no matter the weather.
 
<h2>Valeo AquaBlade’s® history . . . at the crest of the wave</h2>
 
Launched in 2012—a unique concept resulting from the emergence of driving assistance and the need for the top of windshields to be perfectly clean—Valeo AquaBlade® was a patented innovation, well ahead of its time.
 
A part of the Silencio and SWF ranges, Valeo AquaBlade® uses a flat blade with small laser-cut holes that allow washer fluid to be distributed along the entire length of the blade.
 
In comparison, other wipers rely on spray nozzles that are either located under the hood or installed on the wiper arm. The benefits of the Valeo AquaBlade® are many:
 
<ul><li aria-level="1">No more obstructing jets of cleaning fluid</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Better visibility and therefore comfort for the driver</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Larger cleaning area, including upper windshield cameras</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Better night visibility (reduces glare and blur)</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Cleaning quality preserved at all vehicle and wind speeds</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Creates a faster driver reaction time &amp; lower braking distances</li>
</ul> 
<h2>Safety first, safety second, safety . . .</h2>
 
The positive effects of Valeo Aquablade™ on driver reaction times really can’t be overstated. After more than 5,500 tests in real driving conditions, performed with Fraunhofer Institute IOSB, the results discovered were excellent.
 
Drivers using Valeo’s AquaBlade™ reacted 315 milliseconds sooner than those using traditional nozzles. And while in urban environments (at 50 km/h), a braking distance of 4 meters was saved, on the motorway (at 130km/h), a huge 11 meters of braking distance was saved. Such distances are often the difference between avoiding a dangerous incident or not.
<h2>Innovation Front, Back and More</h2>
 
Sold worldwide, and through both traditional channels and online, Valeo is currently the only manufacturer on the market to propose Valeo AquaBlade’s™ original technology in all its different specificities: unheated and heated version, specific wiper arm connections, special spline curves to maximize cleaning efficiency, rear version, etc.
In northern Europe, the heated version represents the major part of the Valeo AquaBlade™ equipped car parc, thanks to its tremendous performance in difficult weather conditions.
 
<h2>Wiping away the competition</h2>
 
Offering a wide range of 20+ references, which are the same portfolio for both the OE and the IAM, Valeo AquaBlade™ currently covers the full car parc—a car parc that is expected to grow to ten times its current size over the next few years.
Valeo AquaBlade’s™ PACE award-winning technology is here to stay, and by doing so, make the future both clearer and safer for all.

&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Not just rubber and metal… water too&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Never to be overlooked, wiper blades perform the most fundamental of functions in any vehicle—to give the driver maximum visibility when on the road. A clear view is a safer drive.&lt;/p&gt;
