Melett North America, Inc. is exhibiting at AAPEX 2019 as we continue to grow across North America and support our customers’ needs in the turbo repair and remanufacturing industry.

At AAPEX, we will be exhibiting at booth 4477 as part of a specialist remanufacturing area. AAPEX 2019 takes place from 5 to 7 November at Sands Expo, Las Vegas, NV and we will be featuring our most popular repair kits, CHRA (core assembly) and, complete turbos.

 

We will also be highlighting the vast amount of useful information available to customers via its website www.melett.com which provides extensive product information, technical guides & videos, turbo tips and industry news.

We will also be promoting our increasingly popular “What’s in Your Turbo?” campaign, which encourages the market to question parts quality even more and look beyond price and appearance. It is risky to assume that parts are identical, even if they look the same.

With the North American turbo repair market growing year on year, General Manager Kenny Taylor explains Melett’s approach: “We have built up a reputation for being the leader in the supply of precision engineered turbochargers and parts, backed by best-in-class customer service and technical support.

“As the turbo repair market grows, we’re looking to grow our customer base and help businesses maintain a quality service and repair throughout. To do so, we’re pushing home the message that only quality repair parts deliver a quality turbo repair and therefore Melett is perfectly placed to provide peace of mind and enhance the reputation of our customers and wider market.”

Melett has promoted Darren Johnson to the role of Head of Sales having previously occupied the position of Sales Manager.

Johnson has been with the Melett since 2012, having first joined as a sales engineer for UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and the Netherlands. In just over a year, he became sales manager, where he occupied the role for more than six years.

Johnson is tasked with managing the Melett sales team alongside growing and developing sales of Melett products across a number of territories and through various partners.

As an expert in his field, Johnson attends many conferences and events and recently gave a keynote presentation to visitors of ReMaTec. He examined the increased parts proliferation in the turbo market and how the level of investment required to produce a comprehensive aftermarket range becomes prohibitive. As a consequence, he said, “the opportunities for remanufacturing and specialist expertise in turbochargers increase.”

Commenting on his new position, Johnson said: “We’ve a great team here at Melett and I’m looking forward to pushing the company forward with new ideas and ensuring we take advantage of the opportunities in the turbocharger reman market. As there is an ever-greater reliance on our customers – to have the specialist equipment and expertise – we also recognise the crucial role Melett plays in supporting them to offer the very highest level of turbocharger repairs.”
