Following a successful launch at Automechanika, Contitech packaging now features a QR code. ContiTech has assigned each product for the automotive aftermarket its own, unique code.

Designed to be scanned using a smartphone, the QR code links to the product-specific page in the Product Information Center (PIC), the company's online service. Along with technical data, parts lists, and product images specific to that part and its application, users will also find installation tips and responses to frequently asked questions about the product – direct product information, anytime, anywhere.

For the new service, ContiTech has created a version of the PIC optimized for Internet-capable cell phones, the QR code is linked to this version. Users can also access the page directly at www.contitech.de/pic.
