Advanced Technology Strategy Leverages Best of British Innovation

Jankel has announced partnerships with two British SMEs at DVD 2022 – Atmos-clear and FuelActive – as part of its ‘Advanced Technology’ strategy to increase sustainability, reduce carbon emissions and increase efficiency.

In line with and to support MoD’s Climate Change and Sustainability Strategic Approach, the move seeks to leverage the best of UK innovation, to address the critical issues of fuel economy and defence sustainability.  Jankel’s other recently announced technology partnerships include BodyTrak and Williams Advanced Engineering (both announced in late 2021). These partnerships demonstrate Jankel’s commitment to remaining at the forefront of emerging technologies, delivering solutions that bring added value capability enhancements to new and existing customers, while promoting UK export.

The Atmos-clear EXO devices significantly reduce fuel particulates and emissions when fitted to any existing fossil-fuelled engine.  The Exo 1 and Exo 3 solutions allow fuel to burn hotter and cleaner, resulting in a drastic reduction in harmful emissions and an increase in fuel economy.  Jankel and Atmos-clear are bringing this new technology to defence and security fleets globally, and will jointly support the product.

FuelActive provides defence with a fit-and-forget solution to protect engines from fuel contamination, while improving fuel economy. The solution uses an innovative design to prevent contaminants entering the engine, increasing fuel economy and dramatically improving engine in-service time, especially in areas with low-grade or dirty fuel, such as overseas deployments.

Jacob Jankel, Technology Lead at Jankel Group, explained, “British innovation and the use of advanced technologies have been at the heart of our business since it was formed by my grandfather, Robert Jankel, in 1955.  It’s great to form these new partnerships with Atmos-clear and FuelActive as a continuation of that British legacy […] In addition to our continuous innovation across our own product and service lines, Jankel [is] also committed to the establishment of successful collaborations and partnerships to integrate the best technologies available into our products, [while] using our relationships and export routes to develop new opportunities.”
