How Energisystems Transformed Its Business with Turtle Wax Pro

The car wash industry is built on more than just great chemistry—it thrives on strong partnerships, reliable support, and innovative solutions. For Energisystems, a leading car wash distributor, their journey to success wasn’t always smooth. Before partnering with Turtle Wax Pro and Transchem Group, they faced challenges with impersonal corporate suppliers, inflexible logistics, and a lack of field support.

That all changed when they found a partner that shared their values. By aligning with Turtle Wax Pro, Energisystems doubled its chemical business, improved customer retention, and helped car washes across their region scale with premium solutions.

This is their story—a testament to the power of the right partnership in the car wash industry.

Why Energisystems Needed a New Approach

Before teaming up with Turtle Wax Pro, Energisystems worked with various chemical manufacturers, but something was missing:

  • Lack of cultural alignment – Previous suppliers operated with a big corporate, private equity mindset, making it difficult to build trust.
  • Minimal field and administrative support – Car wash operators need more than just a product; they need expertise, troubleshooting, and hands-on service.
  • One-size-fits-all chemical solutions – Their previous suppliers lacked the ability to tailor chemistry and marketing to each customer’s specific needs.
  • Logistical inefficiencies – Bulk shipments meant high upfront costs and storage challenges, making it harder to be agile.

Energisystems knew they needed a partner, not just a supplier—one that offered tailored solutions, operational support, and a brand that customers already trusted.

Partnering with Turtle Wax Pro

When Energisystems was introduced to Turtle Wax Pro and Transchem Group, they quickly saw the potential for a true strategic partnership.

Why Turtle Wax Pro?

  • A recognized, trusted brand – Customers already knew and loved Turtle Wax from their garages, making the transition easy.
  • A culture of partnership – Unlike large corporate suppliers, Turtle Wax Pro shared Energisystems’ values of service, trust, and hands-on support.
  • Diverse, high-performance products – Their innovative lineup included Fire, Ice, Super Hard Shell, and graphene-based solutions that wowed customers.
  • Efficient logistics & flexible ordering – With ultra-concentrates in 2.5-gallon containers, Energisystems could streamline deliveries and storage.
  • Comprehensive distributor support – From marketing resources to in-field technical support, Energisystems finally had a true partner in growth.

The results were immediate—Energisystems was better equipped to serve customers, differentiate from competitors, and scale their business with confidence.

A Flagship Success Story: Rapid Wash North & South

One of Energisystems’ standout transformations was at Rapid Wash North & South in Rapid City, South Dakota.

The Challenge:

  • Outdated branding & signage that lacked curb appeal.
  • Competitive pressure from new and modern car wash chains.
  • Customers needed a reason to choose them over competitors.

The Transformation:

  • Rebrand & refresh with Turtle Wax Pro’s high-impact signage and marketing materials.
  • Upgrade to premium wash solutions, featuring Super Hard Shell, Ice Instant Shine, and Fire Wax.
  • On-site service support to optimize chemical usage, cost-per-car, and performance tracking.

The Results:

  • Increased wash volume & customer retention.
  • Higher ticket averages with premium wash package upsells.
  • Became the only tunnel wash in the region experiencing consistent growth.

Rapid Wash is now a flagship site, showcasing how Turtle Wax Pro and Energisystems together can elevate any car wash business.

How Energisystems is Winning with Turtle Wax Pro

Since making the switch, Energisystems has:

  • Doubled its chemical business with more sites onboarding Turtle Wax Pro solutions.
  • Optimized logistics—reducing storage footprints while improving delivery efficiency.
  • Leveraged chemical monitoring & cost-per-car analysis—helping customers make data-driven decisions.
  • Enhanced distributor training with Turtle Wax Pro’s Learning Center, ensuring their technicians and customers stay ahead of the curve.
