Double Coin ‘an outstanding product’ – Kirkby Tyres

Liverpool’s Kirkby Tyres continues to promote Double Coin truck and bus radial tyres, having been sole UK and Ireland importer for more than 20 years. This year the wholesaler made the Chinese manufactured brand the focal point of its presence at the Birmingham NEC’s Commercial Vehicles Show, and Kirkby is convinced that it was “an overwhelming success” for Double Coin.

Ben Santhouse, Double Coin sales specialist commented “The level of interest in the Double Coin range of TBR tyres was unprecedented and far exceeded our expectations!” He continued: “People are becoming more aware of the true value that Double Coin offers over its competition. There are not many manufacturers that can boast the range and still keep to the core values of quality and performance, if you couple this with the ability to re-groove and re-mould the casings; it is an outstanding product.”

Kirkby staff working with Double Coin said they felt they had raised “real” interest in the brand, in addition to positive reports from customers already using the brand about the tyres’ value. The Double Coin range runs from 15” to 24” in truck and 49” in earthmover. 

Kirkby says that some large haulage firms and fleet operators commented repeatedly on the benefits of the comprehensive range that Double Coin offers. Kirkby aims to increase the level of its customer service for the brand through its national dealer network. The company claims it can offer consistent and reliable levels of supply through this core network of tyre outlets, meaning that hauliers know that the Double Coin product is accessible where and when they need it. 

Operating from a five acre distribution centre in Liverpool and warehousing in Dublin, Kirkby is able to supply the whole of the UK and Irish market on a next day delivery basis.
