Hankook presenting new tyre solutions at 2021 CV Show

This summer, Hankook Tyre UK will exhibit its growing range of truck, bus and van tyres, including the new Laufenn truck tyre range, at the Commercial Vehicle Show. The UK’s largest and most comprehensive road transport and commercial vehicle event will take place between 31 August and 2 September; Hankook can be found in Hall 5, at stand 5B50.

In addition to the Laufenn range and other new products such as the all-season Vantra ST AS2 (RA30), Hankook Tyre UK will display a comprehensive range of existing Hankook truck and bus tyres, including the steer (SmartWork AM11), drive (SmartWork DM11) and trailer (SmartWork TM11) tyres from the recently expanded SmartWork series, for regional on/off road.

Increasing market share dominance with Laufenn

Hankook Tyre UK remarks that it is “already viewed as the leader in the UK truck tyre replacement market.” The Laufenn truck tyre range’s debut follows “research in the ever-evolving commercial tyre market to further increase market share dominance” in Britain.

“The new Laufenn commercial portfolio is based on a recognised brand with high-quality products and innovative technologies,” says Hankook Tyre UK. “The second-line brand offers good value for money, and guaranteed retreadability throughout the range, not only to reduce costs but to lessen the impact the products have on the environment.”

Paul Emery, sales director for Hankook Tyre UK adds: “As Hankook is viewed as the leader in the UK truck tyre replacement market and the Commercial Vehicle Show is the largest road transport and commercial vehicle event in the UK, it is the ideal opportunity to present our brand-new products, alongside our existing innovative tyre solutions. Hankook continues to build on its reputation for producing outstanding tyres delivering superb mileage and reliability and the new Laufenn product further demonstrates our understanding of the market and how customer needs are changing.”

Emery continues: “Our share of the market has grown considerably in recent years and fleets looking to maximise value for money in every area of their business have returned time and time again to Hankook, which prides itself on providing reliable products and service for customers and linking this with excellent cost per mile figures.”
