Small businesses operating between 5 and 50 company cars or vans (up to 3.5 tonnes) are being invited to take advantage of a free tyre safety inspection for their fleet courtesy of ATS Euromaster who will also undertake the first tyre repair it identifies per fleet free of charge.

The offer includes a tread depth and general tyre condition report, highlighting any tyres which are either damaged, punctured or at or below the legal limit, plus those which need replacing soon, all backed up with a written report for the fleet manager or owner.

“Tyres are the only part of a vehicle in direct contact with the road, but they are also one of the most neglected items in terms of vehicle maintenance,” warns Martyn Pointer, head of regional sales at ATS Euromaster. “Poorly maintained tyres not only pose a major safety hazard but can escalate vehicle running costs, particularly in terms of increased fuel consumption.”

ATS Euromaster is making the offer available to the first 500 companies who contact their local centre, the offer is only available to non-existing customers.
