A Legacy of Precision, Driving the Future of Automotive Service
For generations, Crypton has been synonymous with precision and innovation in automotive equipment. Our story began in the early days of the motor industry, a time of rapid advancement and evolving needs. From our origins in manufacturing electrical motors and generators, we quickly recognized the critical need for accurate and reliable testing equipment.
In the 1930s, Crypton took a pioneering step, developing some of the world's first engine testers. This marked the beginning of our commitment to pushing the boundaries of technology and empowering automotive professionals with the tools they needed to excel. Through decades of relentless innovation, we've remained at the forefront of the industry, consistently anticipating and meeting the evolving demands of automotive service.
From pioneering "area testing" and the use of oscilloscopes in the 1950's, to the development of computer-controlled equipment in the 1960’s, and the modern digital and connected equipment of today, Crypton has consistently delivered products that set industry standards.
Today, as part of a larger family, Crypton continues to build upon its legacy of excellence. We understand the challenges faced by modern workshops, from the increasing complexity of vehicle technology to the ever-stricter regulatory requirements. That's why we're dedicated to providing our customers with cutting-edge equipment and unwavering support.
Our commitment extends beyond simply providing tools, we're dedicated to fostering a culture of precision, reliability, and trust. We empower automotive professionals to deliver exceptional service, ensuring vehicles are safe, efficient, and compliant.
At Crypton, we don't just build equipment, we build partnerships. We're driven by a passion for innovation and a dedication to helping our customers succeed.
In light of the updated guidance by the DVSA in November 2024 we take a short look at emissions.
The road haulage industry is undergoing a significant shift, with increasing emphasis on environmental sustainability and emission control. DVSA are tightening the reins on emissions fraud, and new standards are being introduced to promote cleaner vehicles.
Why is Emission Control Important?
Excessive emissions contribute to air pollution, climate change, and public health issues. By adhering to emission standards, the haulage industry can not only ensure compliance but play a crucial role in reducing its environmental footprint, while building their brand reputation.
Key Compliance Requirements
Reporting and Enforcement Enforcement is only undertaken by the police or DVSA inspectors, however, the general public are able to report vehicles they believe are emitting excessive smoke to the DVSA.
Don’t get caught out, invest in your own CSP900 smokemeter and prioritise regular vehicle emission tests.
