QL - Quality Line - marine accessories has been on the market for nearly ten years. The brand is owned and operated by Volvo Penta as a complement to its engine business. The range includes bow and stern thrusters, various types of pumps, trim tabs, heaters, anchor windlasses, fuel decontaminators and more. The products are available mainly from Volvo Penta dealers but also other selected marine distributors.
“With QL we offer the market a more complete range,” says Christina Backman, QL Product Manager at Volvo Penta. “The QL range is hallmarked with the high Volvo Penta quality standard, warranties are equally extensive and customers are provided service through Volvo Penta’s global network of dealers and service centers. Our website is part of Volvo Penta’s ambition to broaden the QL concept and to expand further.”
Strong growth
The market for boat accessories is growing steadily. The equipment level of modern craft for easier maneuverability, higher comfort and safety standard is increasing continuously.
“We have experienced fantastic growth and sales have doubled in the past three years. We have further developed the product line, including enhancing our bow and stern thruster range. And we have added new product groups. Fuel decontaminators, sound absorbents and heaters are examples of new QL products. As an aid to visitors searching this increasing range of products, there is a section on the website covering frequently asked questions (FAQs). Answers are provided in the areas in which Volvo Penta and its dealers receive questions most often. Hopefully, this will help boat owners to an even better boating enjoyment,” concludes Christina Backman.
