MANN+HUMMEL Partners with PT. Bquik Otomotif Indonesia to Offer Premium Automotive Filtration Solutions in Indonesia
Jakarta, Indonesia – November 20, 2024 – MANN+HUMMEL, a global leader in filtration solutions, is pleased to announce its strategic partnership with PT. Bquik Otomotif Indonesia (B-Quik), a prominent automotive service provider in Southeast Asia, to offer cutting-edge automotive filtration solutions through its aftermarket brands, WIX Filters and MANN-FILTER, in Indonesia. This collaboration is part of MANN+HUMMEL’s ongoing expansion efforts in the Asian market, reinforcing its commitment to enhancing safety, sustainability, and engine performance for the drivers.
The partnership was officially formalized on November 15, 2024. Together, MANN+HUMMEL and B-Quik aim to provide innovative filtration solutions that promote cleaner air, protect vehicle engines, and reduce the need for frequent maintenance, ultimately improving the driving experience.
“We are excited to partner with B-Quik to make WIX and MANN-FILTER more accessible to drivers in Indonesia,” said Sonny Tandy, Managing Director of PT MANN+HUMMEL Filtration Indonesia. “This collaboration marks an important milestone in MANN+HUMMEL’s ongoing expansion in Southeast Asia and is fully aligned with our mission to deliver high-quality filtration solutions. With WIX and MANN-FILTER products already enjoying global success, this partnership presents a great opportunity to broaden our reach in Indonesia, particularly to B-Quik’s customers. Given our established presence in the country, we are well-positioned to offer not only top-tier products but also exceptional service. We are committed to continuously improving to better meet the needs of our customers while strengthening our distribution network across the region.”
Road pollution in Indonesia, especially in cities like Jakarta, has become a significant environmental and public health issue, driven by rapid urbanization, increasing vehicle numbers, and heavy reliance on fossil fuels. As traffic emissions remain a major source of pollution, vehicle filters are essential. Through this partnership, MANN+HUMMEL and B-Quik will offer a wide range of WIX filters and MANN-FILTER in Indonesia, including air, oil, fuel, and cabin filters. These products are designed to protect critical engine components, improve fuel efficiency, reduce harmful emissions, and ensure cleaner air inside the vehicle cabin. Cabin filters, in particular, are vital for improving air quality inside the vehicle by trapping dust, pollen, and other harmful particles, creating a healthier and more comfortable driving experience for both drivers and passengers.
"At B-Quik, we are continuously searching for the best products for our customers. Working with MANN+HUMMEL is the result of that, and we’re looking forward to building our collaboration in the years to come." said Vincent Goettsch, Managing Director of PT. B-Quik Otomotif Indonesia.
MANN+HUMMEL and B-Quik are aligned in their commitment to creating a more sustainable automotive ecosystem. By offering high-performance filtration solutions, this partnership will help protect vehicle engines, improve driving efficiency, and contribute to cleaner air quality in Indonesia.
