WIX upgrades ProTec oil filter line

Oct. 28, 2021
WIX extends ProTec brand to include air and cabin air filters.

WIX Filters announced that in first quarter 2022 the company will launch the re-engineered WIX ProTec line of products. The new WIX ProTec oil filter features improved filtration media to allow for up to 10,000 miles of premium engine protection. The WIX ProTec brand has been extended to now include air and cabin air filters, as well. Additionally, the entire line features new, eye-catching packaging that was designed with the installer in mind.

The WIX ProTec oil filter provides up to 96 percent or more containment-trapping capabilities for passenger vehicles and light trucks. This elevated design allows for an extended period between oil changes, as the previous version provided engine protection for just 3,000-5,000 miles

WIX ProTec air filters offer high-performing, worry-free protection and are available for just about every car and light truck on the road today. These filters play a vital role in preventing foreign particles such as soot, carbon, and abrasives from entering the fuel mix and damaging an engine.

WIX ProTec cabin air filters capture airborne contaminants, while also preventing leaves, dirt, bugs, and other debris from negatively impacting the operation of the HVAC systems heater, air conditioner, and defroster. 

“WIX is dedicated to providing customers in the aftermarket with premium quality filters designed to exceed all performance demands,” said Alison Grabowski, senior marketing manager at MANN+HUMMEL. “Our commitment to continual product and process improvements is affirmed with the design of products that dramatically increase the span of premium vehicle protection.”

WIX has facilities in seven different countries and manufactures more than 210 million filters annually. Focusing on innovation and quality, WIX meets or exceeds OEM standards for fit, form, and function and has partnered with companies across the country to also offer price-competitive products. 

The new WIX ProTec filters will be featured at the Product and Package Showcase at AAPEX, and visitors can get more details at the MANN+HUMMEL booth, #A1832.
