Sagola Shines Brightly at Peña Profesional Fair 2024!

During the recent edition of Peña Profesional, held from March 6 to 8, 2024, at the Exhibition, Fair and Convention Center of Córdoba, Sagola showcased its technological innovations in the field of automotive repair and maintenance.

One of the highlighted products was our Sagola Altair LED ultra-lighting system, an exclusive solution for our 4600 series guns. This system, in addition to being ideal for worry-free cleaning due to its waterproof nature, respects the gun's center of gravity, ensuring comfortable and ergonomic use, thanks to its optimized design that also does not generate shadows.

Another innovation presented was the Sagola Spray, a virtual painting booth. It allows users to practice and perfect their painting techniques virtually, without the need to spend product or prepare physical pieces. Each painted section is evaluated and scored, providing an invaluable educational tool for professionals and students. The Sagola Spray captured the interest of many Professional Training institutes, demonstrating the importance of equipping future professionals with the highest quality tools.

As for our paint guns, the 4600 series, which includes the famous 4600 Xtreme and the special edition 4600 Overland Adventure, continue to prove to be the fastest guns on the market with the highest product transfer. This feature is especially valued by workshops, as it allows saving product and time, thus optimizing work processes.

In air treatment, we highlight the importance of a pure air system in paint booths. Sagola's 5000X series filters represent the optimal solution, offering up to three stages of filtration to achieve the highest degree of cleanliness in booths and painting lines. The system includes an 8-micron sintered bronze filter, a 0.01-micron coalescent filter, and a final large-section activated carbon filter, capable of eliminating water, impurities, organic vapors, and air odors.

Furthermore, we introduced Elcometer inspection equipment, designed to offer precision and reliability in the evaluation of finishes and coatings, ensuring that each job meets the most demanding quality standards.

We wish to express our gratitude to Grupo Peña, our distributor, for the excellent organization and for providing a platform that not only allows us to showcase our latest innovations but also promotes the development of emerging talent in the sector. Collaboration and commitment to training and innovation continue to be fundamental pillars for Sagola, and events like Peña Profesional are essential for moving towards the future of the automotive sector. With an increasingly notable presence at industry events throughout the Iberian Peninsula, Sagola reaffirms its position as an indispensable partner for professionals in automotive repair, industry, wood, and construction. The company thanks all attendees for their interest and participation and is committed to continuing to work to provide products and solutions that meet the changing needs of the market and contribute to the evolution of the sector.
