Car lovers in Kuwait can now give their cars a cool makeover with the opening of Atockon’s new one-stop-shop in the country that offers premium car accessory brands for car wrap, cleaning, paint protection, tint, and spray and detailing.
Present during the formal inauguration of the showroom were high profile guests, including Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah Al Mubarak Al Sabah – Minister of State for Cabinet Affairs, Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al Sabah and all the brand representatives.
According to Ali Al Shatti, executive manager of Atockon, the company is a revolutionary concept in the car accessories scene in Kuwait, with several car lovers and enthusiasts desiring to give their cars a makeover with street legal accessories, or car care products and services that will keep their cars looking like new all the time. He said that they provide this market with Atockon’s brand of service excellence that would keep car enthusiasts coming back for more.
Atockon, a sister company of Apex Technology – the exclusive distributor of LLumar Films in Kuwait, also sells and distributes Qugo, an electric motor powered bike/scooter designed, developed and manufactured in the Netherlands.
Commenting on Qugo, Majod Mahmood, business development director at Atockon, said that it is the way to go to private and is designed for professional users who seek fast and flexible means of inpidual transportation. “It is conveniently portable with its folding handle bar and low weight and is street legal and chargeable wherever you are. With no helmet required in most countries, it is easy to operate and stable to ride. And because it is 100 per cent electric, it produces no harmful emissions and noise.”
Featuring a compact hub motor in the front wheel, the efficient electric motor of the Qugo is powered by a new 48V lithium battery pack integrated in the aluminum frame. The three disc brakes ensure sufficient stopping power and the backlit digital dashboard displays odometer, speed and a battery indicator. With the switches and controls on the handle bar, the rider controls its speed, the horn and the lights. Plus, it comes equipped with an extremely powerful 55W halogene dipped beam, front/rear LED position lamps and brake lamp. The revolutionary Qugo is available in two variations: The Qugo Crossroad and the Qugo Road.
Among the globe’s premier spray film, paint protection and car wrap products available at Atockon are Foliatec and GrafiWrap.
Foliatec’s Spray Film from Germany can be used on motorbikes, wheels or as paint protection. In fact, it can even be used for furniture or in the garden. Offered at Atockon, the renowned Foliatec Spray Films come in two sizes, more than 20 colors, and as single cans or in sets. Since 2014, they also come in a Neon variant. What’s more, Foliatec’s range has its own accessories and is continuously being expanded.
Over the years, GrafiWrap products have been used to make commercial vehicle and road signs. However, Grafityp are now taking self-adhesives a step further with GrafiWrap Automotive and Deco films. These smooth cast self-adhesive films embellish the vehicle and give it an exclusive look and touch. Car lovers on the hunt for GrafiWrap products such as a matt black boot lid, mirrors in carbon, body in brushed aluminum, a carbon-look or leather interior, or sport strips that change the color and look of a vehicle depending on the viewing angle, can find them all for purchase and installation at Atockon.
Also available in the shop is the total paint rectification solution for today’s body shop with brands such as Zirconite, Xpert60 and Concept.
Mahmood explained that Zirconite’s Paint, Fabric and Leather products use state-of-the-art technologies and apply an invisible protective coating to treated surfaces which boosts appearance without altering the OEM finish.
Meanwhile, he said that Xpert-60 presents professional technology for daily use of professionals, semi-professionals and enthusiasts. “Combining Concept product technologies in smaller pack sizes, all Xpert-60 products have been designed to be easy and quick to use but still deliver professional quality results.”
Mahmood noted that Concept is acknowledged as the premier brand for detailing product solutions across the automotive, marine, commercial and transportation industries, adding that Concept products combine the latest technologies to deliver cutting-edge, high quality and efficient solutions for the professional user.
Moreover, Atockon also takes pride in its LLumar Window Film, a product of Eastman Chemicals USA, the largest producer of quality glass treatment films in the world. This scratch-resistant window film is backed by a 10-year manufacturer guarantee and can cut off UV radiation by 99 percent, visible light transmittance by 73 percent and infrared radiation by 94 percent.
