A range of products are available from Lanotec Lanotec, an Australian-made leader in sustainable multi-purpose lubricants and protectants, is celebrating its 25th anniversary with the recent launch of new specialist environmentally friendly product lines for a wide array of automotive applications, including professional workshops and the consumer aftermarket.
Lanotec says its 2023 range is the culmination of long-term development focused on premium quality, all-natural lanolin-based products, which are non-toxic and ideal for use in sensitive locations.
Lanolin is an organic substance produced by sheep to shield the coating on their fleece, which carries its amazing protective properties into a wide range of real-world uses, with the lineup finding favour in mining, agriculture, construction, manufacturing, timber treatment, defence, aviation and more.
Backing up the green credentials of the Lanotec offering, multiple products have received Global Green Tag’s prestigious certification, NSF certification, are endorsed for use in industries operating a HACCP-based food safety program, as well as being approved by AQIS for use in export registered meat establishments.
whenever a dependable lubricant or penetrant is required.
While providing long-lasting lubrication, MPX also penetrates, freeing up rusted tools, nuts and bolts, stops squeaks, repels moisture while preventing water ingress, protects metal from corrosion, and rejuvenates vinyl, leather and powder-coated surfaces, amongst a multitude of potential uses.
Continuing to lead the charge in professional applications are Lanotec’s General Purpose and Heavy-Duty product offerings, which provide next-level lubrication and protection while cleaning, rejuvenating and extending the life of metal, timber, plastic, rubber, and fibreglass finishes, says Lanotec.
Pedders says these are ideal for vehicles that are reaching high mileage or have been involved in accidents and require replacement items.
For drivers wanting a lowered look and enhanced performance from their Tesla Model 3, Pedders offers lowered Performance coil springs for both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive models.

For drivers seeking the ultimate in handling performance from their Tesla Model 3, Pedders offers its eXtreme XA Adjustable Coilover kit to suit all variants of the Model 3.
Featuring a fully-threaded Monotube body, motorsport-tuned coil springs, complete height adjustment and 30 position dump and rebound, the Pedders eXtreme XA Coilover kit is designed for maximum performance while retaining onroad comfort.
Pedders is also developing its own range of performance Kevlar Ceramic brake pads to suit the Tesla Model 3, and these are expected to be released later this year.
