Cranbury, NJ – Professional Tool & Equipment News (PTEN), the go-to magazine automotive repair shop owners and technicians read first to learn about the latest tools and equipment in the automotive aftermarket that can increase productivity in the shop, has announced its 2023 Innovation Award Winners.
With over 100 product nominations, spanning across 26 categories, Plymovent is happy to announce that the Internal Grabber® has won the Safety Equipment & Personal Gear category! “On behalf of the PTEN Innovation Awards, I would like to congratulate Plymovent on their Internal Grabber®” PTEN Editor, Emily Markham. “This competitive program allows PTEN to celebrate and recognize the most innovative products impacting the vehicle repair community this year.”
The Plymovent Internal Grabber® is a universal nozzle that fits the shapes and positions of any car and pickup truck exhaust tailpipes. This patented nozzle makes other nozzles obsolete. The Internal Grabber® connects to standard horizontal discharges, dual tailpipes and even flush tailpipes that exit through the vehicle bumper. Equipped with a magnetic mountable storage “tripod”, this wall bracket provides you a safe and out of the way storage option.
Evaluated by a panel of judges consisting of technicians and shop owners, the PTEN Innovation Awards recognize the most innovative products introduced in the last year to the automotive aftermarket. These tools, introduced or significantly updated within the last year, are evaluated based on their ability to make vehicle diagnosis and repair easier and more efficient as well as make shops more productive.
Winning submissions will be published in the August 2023 issue of PTEN. Those with the highest scores will be interviewed by a PTEN editor and be featured in a monthly column in each issue of PTEN (one winner per issue).
About Plymovent
Since 1975, we have made it our business to ensure clean air at work, providing high-quality vehicle exhaust extraction and industrial filtration products to protect workers across the world. Plymovent is the world leader in protecting firefighters, EMS personnel and others from exposure to hazardous vehicle exhaust fumes.
There are many health risks associated with the exposure to vehicle exhaust emissions. Every time a vehicle is operating the engine emits tiny fragments of particulate matter and invisible gasses such as carbon monoxide. Often when maintaining or repairing automobiles a mechanic will be required to operate them indoors. When operating a vehicle indoors the exhaust emissions should be removed to prevent exposure of both employees and customers to these tiny fragments and gasses. As an example, extremely high concentrations of carbon monoxide produced by a vehicle’s engine can reach toxic levels within a matter of minutes inside a closed building.
The finalists competing for the title 'Best Company in North Holland' anxiously awaited the decisive answer on the evening of Wednesday, May 29. And Plymovent has succeeded in being named the best company in the province for 2024, in the Large Business category, according to the OVNH jury and the public.
We are dedicated to take part in the Lung Cancer Awareness Month this November. Lung cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers worldwide. So we think it is important to raise awareness about lung cancer, its risks, prevention, early detection, and treatment.
