The powerful WypAll® range meets the demands of Herrod Performance motor sports

Herrod Performance Motor Sports was established by Rob Herrod in Thomastown, north of Melbourne in the 1970s, and since then he’s established a world recognised relationship with Ford. Rob’s dedication and commitment to excellence means he has high expectations, and he was having problems finding a wiping solution that met his high standards. Traditional rags and wipes lacked the overall performance he needed but since discovering the WypAll® range, he’s not looked back.



To meet the high expectations of Rob Herrod, his suppliers need to have the best performing products, that’s why he stands by  Wypall® wipes.

“I only use the best of the best!” explains Rob Herrod, the passionate founder and owner of Herrod Performance Motor Sports. “We used to use bags of rags, but I always thought they looked unprofessional, and they left too much lint, which is a big no-no when you’re working with engines.

“Presentation is everything. When you have customers walking into your shop you want them to think ‘wow’ how clean is this place, how good does it look. And with Wypall, we don’t have any problems with keeping this place clean. It looks professional and it works.”

Rob has been in the motor industry since he was a child, following in the footsteps of his grand-father and father before him. “I’ve seen the industry go through many changes over the years and I’ve remained at the forefront of everything I do.

“My partners and customers come to me because I am fastidious and dedicated. I have a reputation of giving my best and focus on perfection at every level. That’s why I appreciate the quality of the WypAll® range of wipes, I can’t say enough about them. 


"With any normal rag we had problems with lint - not collecting the dirt properly and not absorbing properly. When swapping over to Wypall®, what we found instantly was the absorbency was phenomenal. It could be used many, many times. But the main thing we found was no lint*, and lint had been our biggest problem."



Throughout the workshop, WypAll® dispensers and rolls are always within reach. “We have a dedicated area for cleaning, dismantling and fitting parts. We lay them out on the benches on the large sheets of Wypall® and it absorbs any moisture or oil.”

It’s clear from the way Rob and his team run and maintain his facility, that the partnership with Kimberly-Clark Professional is well-aligned.   Rob and his team use the Power Clean range from Wypall®.

“I can’t fault the range of products and the relationship I have formed with Kimberly-Clark Professional has been fantastic. I’m constantly telling others in the industry how much I love it. I have honestly never looked back; the product is better than I would have expected.”
