Win Off-Roading Tickets With KRT and Cooper

Kings Road Tyres are offering visitors to the Brityrex exhibition the opportunity to win a day’s off-road driving experience at Kankku Off Road Adventures based in Windermere.

Simply visit Kings Road Tyres on Stand 7 at the show and drop your business card into the box for the chance to win a day out with a difference.

At the end of 2006 Cooper celebrated its first year of using Cooper’s Discoverer STT rubber on its fleet of 4×4 vehicles by dangling a 4×4 over the Kankku centre in the Lake District.

Adaptable Smart Repair

Yorkshire based smart repair supplier Ayce Systems is returning to Brityrex, and – thanks to the success it experienced at Brityrex 2005 – has doubled the size of its stand. Ayce will exhibit a cross section of products from its extensive range but the centrepiece will be their highly successful Wheelrite Pro, an all-in-one alloy wheel repair kit.

Unlike some systems on the market, Wheelrite Pro uses automatic pneumatic clamping, which Ayce reports can handle all designs of car and motorcycle wheels up to 22-inches in diameter, with or without a central hole. Because of this adaptability Ayce says the Wheelrite Pro is proving particularly popular with independent repair workshops.

Power Anywhere, Anytime

As sole UK and European suppliers of 12/24v dc air compressors, Absolute Air Solutions are proud to be associated with the XD3000 compressor, which they intend to exhibit at Brityrex for the first time.

Featuring Presolite motors and state of the art control electronics, the XD3000 is capable of delivering shop performance on the road and is designed for extended duty cycles. With a compact design it can be easily mounted in a wide range of locations, providing power where it’s needed most. The XD3000 is competitively priced, and as it has no petrol engine, filters, spark plugs or carburettors to maintain the costs are greatly reduced.

As the XD3000 emits no harmful exhaust emissions and creates low levels of noise pollutions, it is fully compliant with new government legislation. The compressor’s lubrication system virtually eliminates outside contaminants and oil emissions.

Prominent wholesaler Micheldever Tyre Services has revealed plans for a major sales offensive during May’s Brityrex International’07 exhibition.

We’re fully committed to making it a big success for us, our customers and the organisers, who have had the confidence to revitalise the event.”

Prema to Expand into Ireland

Describing 2006 as a “another tough yet successful year for Harvie,” managing director, Terry Brooks has explained that pressures from Chinese balance weight imports and more aggressive competition have not stopped the company from growing and investing in two new salesmen.

In the last year Harvie has grown its fleet of vans to 12 and boasts full UK coverage. Plans to enter the Irish market are underway and a new salesman for the north based in Belfast will start later this year. Negotiations with 2 possible agents based in Dublin in the south are said to be “advancing.”

TRA to Exhibit at Brityrex in May

The Tyre Recovery Association (TRA) will exhibit at Brityrex for the first time this May. The rapidly growing body whose members operate the Responsible Recycler Scheme is unique in a number of ways (not least its voluntary character). TRA is reportedly the largest national tyre recovery programme in Europe. During this year’s show the association will be offering tyre dealers, garage owners and anyone handling old tyres a five-point ‘Health Check’ to help them understand their legal obligations.

EBC Brakes Partners with Bridgestone

It is no small accomplishment for a smaller company such as EBC Brakes to find itself as a preferred partner of Bridgestone, but following successful pilot testing, a nationwide rollout of EBC Brakes to all 163 of the Bridgestone First Stop fitting centres is underway. Publishing the news EBC pointed out that there is absolutely no financial connection between the two companies. Instead the relationship is described as: “Merely an exploitation of a common quality base of consumers looking for good tyres and good brakes in one location.”

Old Friends and New Blood for Brityrex International

With six months to go before Brityrex International opens its doors, the exhibition is shaping up nicely, with over 67 per cent of floor space already sold, say the organisers, ECI International. And never before has the “International” part of the show’s name been more appropriate, as companies from all over the world will be making tracks for Manchester’s G-MEX Exhibition Centre next May. ECI International managing director Paul Farrant is delighted with progress to date, saying: “Past Brityrex exhibitions have always had a large number of exhibitors from the UK, and indeed the 2007 show is no exception, but we are seeing an increasing number of overseas companies taking space.”
