In a strategic move to ensure consistent quality and reliability for its extensive fleet, Collease Truck and Trailer Hire has renewed its contract with Prometeon Tyre Group for another year. This renewal highlights Collease’s commitment to providing top-tier services to its customers through a dependable partnership with one of the leading tyre manufacturers.
Partnership Overview
Collease, a family-owned hire company with five locations across the UK in Manchester, Felixstowe, Southampton, Norwich, and Basildon, leases trucks and trailers to a broad range of clients. The fleet includes over 2,000 trailers, 300 tractor units, and 350 other vehicles, covering everything from 7.5-tonne vans to 26-tonne refrigerated trucks. These vehicles support a variety of industries, from agriculture to industrial goods, delivering products such as fresh produce, chilled foods, and heavy machinery.
Prometeon will supply around 2,500 tyres annually to Collease’s fleet, ensuring that each vehicle runs efficiently and safely. With customers driving an average of 160,000 kilometers per year, high-quality tyre management is essential to meet demanding schedules and operational needs.
Commitment to Quality and Service
Tony Willats, the Tyre Manager at Collease, expressed his satisfaction with the renewed partnership, noting that Prometeon’s service consistently meets and exceeds expectations. “We were extremely happy to extend the contract with Prometeon as the service we receive is outstanding,” he shared. Prometeon’s team provides more than just tyres—they bring in-depth industry expertise and a proactive approach that adds considerable value to Collease’s business.
“We compared like for like, but Prometeon’s attention to detail, expertise, and quick response times could not be matched,” Willats added. This level of service has been especially crucial for Collease’s customers transporting perishable goods, where time is of the essence. Prometeon’s rapid response to tyre issues minimizes downtime, helping Collease’s clients maintain their schedules and avoid costly delays.
Enhancing Fleet Efficiency Through Tailored Support
Prometeon’s mission aligns closely with Collease’s operational priorities. Wayne Bell, Prometeon’s National Fleet Manager, explains that they strive to go beyond basic tyre provision by thoroughly understanding each customer’s business needs. “We strive to always give an extra level of service by working closely with our customers to fully understand their business,” Bell said. This allows Prometeon to provide tailored solutions that improve efficiency, reduce operational costs, and ultimately support business growth.
Quick response times and effective damage management are key factors in Prometeon’s successful contract with Collease. Willats highlighted how Prometeon’s expert guidance has saved Collease time and resources when handling tyre damage issues. By advising Collease on damage recharges, Prometeon helps streamline fleet operations and minimize unnecessary expenses.
Supporting Collease’s Long-Term Growth
As Collease continues to expand its presence in the UK market, the ongoing partnership with Prometeon is set to play a pivotal role. Prometeon’s proactive tyre management and dedicated dealer network ensure that Collease’s vehicles stay on the road, meeting customer expectations. By choosing Prometeon, Collease gains more than just a tyre supplier—they have a business partner committed to supporting their long-term success.
In summary, this renewed contract reflects the shared commitment of Collease and Prometeon to quality, efficiency, and client satisfaction. As both companies look to the future, their partnership will undoubtedly help Collease continue to grow and deliver reliable services to businesses across the UK.
