BG Products Celebrates 50 Years of Innovation

WICHITA, Kan.– BG Products, Inc., celebrates 50 years of leading innovation in the automotive aftermarket and the transportation segment.

In 1971, seven automotive entrepreneurs proclaimed that BG Products, Inc., would always offer superior products and services.

When they established a Research and Development team, they cemented the BG vision as innovation leader in the industry of automotive maintenance (and the entire transportation industry). Over 50 years, BG has kept pace with the innovations of domestic and foreign automakers.

From carburetors to port fuel injection, to gasoline direct injection, ever-changing diesel technologies, and the latest shift to hybrid-electric and electric vehicles, BG has always offered vehicle owners high quality maintenance, no matter the engine type.

With specialized, user-friendly equipment and the highest quality products, BG has always led the industry with maintenance service for every system of the vehicle. Automotive shops rely on our services for a profit center that was not realized prior to having these important services to sell."

  • 2003 First to market a combustion chamber decarbonizing system.
