Turtle Wax is celebrating its 75^th anniversary with the announcement of the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic + Graphene Paste Wax. This new paste wax features the brand's patent-pending graphene technology- one of the most recent developments in car care.

The commemorative paste wax features a unique blend of 10 waxes infused with silicon dioxide (SiO2) ceramic and graphene technology. The combined key benefits of this limited-edition wax include gloss, slickness, water repellency, chemical resistance along with heat dissipation for increased UV protection, and helps keep water and contaminants from sticking to the vehicle- resulting in a clean, protected and easier to maintain surface.

The Hybrid Solutions Ceramic + Graphene Paste Wax will be available on Amazon, Turtle Wax Car Care Studios and leading Car Care outlets across India.

Turtle Wax entered India in 2020; having made its name across the globe for producing some of the world’s most technologically advanced car-care solutions across multiple categories.

Turtle Wax has products for carpet/fabric care, spray wax, lens restoration kits, compounds/polishes, scratch removers and bug/tar/sticker removers, and more.

Denis John Healy, executive chairman, Turtle Wax, said, “It’s been an incredible journey over the last 75 years, and I’m so lucky to have had a front-row seat to it all, including our foray into the Indian market. I’m honored to continue their legacy and excited for what we have in store for 2021 and beyond for India and the world.”

Sajan Murali Puravangara, executive director & country manager-India & South Asia, Turtle Wax, “It’s been a pleasure being associated with Turtle Wax for so many years. Its storied legacy and continued innovation are what makes this family-owned brand so successful around the globe. The fact that Turtle Wax has expanded to India and is celebrating such a huge milestone is an indication that we have big goals for the brand and are always looking ahead.” (MT)
