Banner | Free Kroon-Oil banner on your website
It's easy to get a banner on your website. With our special banner generator, you integrate the Kroon-Oil product recommendation quickly and efficiently into your website or webshop. A unique and functional service which we offer freely to our customers.

Once integrated into your website or webshop, your visitors can directly put in a search query, after which the Kroon-Oil product advice will be displayed in a new window.

Composing a banner
While composing your banner, there are several options. For example:

  1. A banner with license plate search queries (available in The Netherlands, Denmark and Norway.
  2. A banner using Kroon-Oil's 'smart search' functionality.

Of course, you can use both. Depending on your website's colour scheme, you can choose a light or dark theme. The banner is fully scalable. Its size and position are something you decide when implementing the banner into your CMS.

API | Free direct link to all of Kroon-Oil's product information

Kroon-Oil's range is constantly changing. Specifications are regularly adjusted, and new products are continually being launched. Safety information is kept up-to-date to make sure it meets the applicable standards. These are significant developments but can be hard for you to keep up with. Today's data may no longer be relevant tomorrow. This is why it can be helpful for you to connect to our API. Kroon-Oil's API can help you get to grips with all our data.

Creating a link to our API means your website will always be up-to-date and provides you with: 

  • full access to our technical information (TDS)
  • full access to your safety data sheets (MSDS)
  • full access to all the available product information (images, descriptions, gross prices, EAN codes, part numbers, etc.) 

Using product data through an API is entirely free for Kroon-Oil customers. You only have to invest in the implementation of the data provided by the API. In addition, once connected to our data source, the API will automatically update your data as it consistently sends actual data to your platform. The condition is that the programming is set up based on real-time requests.

Increase your range via our API, the world's largest vehicle database.
It's unique to have the possibility to deliver, besides product data, also vehicle data. The vehicle data is the property of a supplier of Kroon-Oil, and due to a 'reuse' arrangement, we can deliver this kind of data conditionally. Herewith you can program a Kroon-Oil recommendation tool. All available data from Kroon-Oil's recommendation tool is available through an API for this purpose:

  • vehicle information (for all vehicles or just the ones applicable to your company)
  • vehicle selection using a number plate (passenger vehicles in countries where this service is available)
  • vehicle selection using a TecDoc ID (if you have made a vehicle search function available via your website or webshop)
  • vehicle selection using search criteria like brand, model and type. Or for a specific segment (road traffic, agriculture, two-wheeled vehicles, industrial vehicles or marine vehicles) 

This data is not a property of Kroon-Oil, which means strict conditions are imposed on its use. There are relatively low annual costs associated with using this data, and there's only a particular volume to be used per year. The data may only be requested from the API based on unique questions per event and may not be cached and stored. If you wish to use this service, you enter into a re-use agreement with our supplier, and we will take care of the handling of this for you.
