We will be at the International Workboat Show in New Orleans Dec.2nd-4th at booth 1053. Come out and see how our fuel maintenance programs and fuel filtration systems help keep the work boat world running.

December 8th through December 10th AXI will be in Las Vegas at PowerGen International at booth C2912. AXI will be there to answer all your questions and demonstrate the fuel maintenance systems that are used in the power generation markets.

 

Also, keep your eyes peeled for the latest issue of Fuel for Thought, the AXI newsletter that recaps news  of our distributors around the world, and gives sneak peeks at the upcoming fuel maintenance and optimization systems.
