UKS business partnership with TRICO continues to grow

UKS has been working in partnership with TRICO for almost four years, and the past two years has seen a huge growth in sales of the TRICO blade offerings.

UKS managing director Geoff Jones commented: “We enjoy a tremendous relationship with TRICO and wiper blades fits in so well with our product offering. Our clients continue to ask for a recognised brand and what better than the company and brand that invented the wiper blade over 100 years ago.

“Our TRICO order books are still growing and there’s no doubt of its quality and globally recognised brand. I’m confident that we have some of the very best brands and product behind us at UKS and TRICO is a perfect example of that.”

TRICO provides specifically designed and engineered blades as Original Equipment to vehicle manufacturers and motorists alike. With a market share in over 50 countries, millions of TRICO wiper blades are fitted to vehicles every year.

All TRICO wiper blades are engineered and manufactured to perform under the most severe weather conditions, and a wide range of product options give motor factors, retailers and consumers a comprehensive choice.

UKS distributes four of the TRICO product ranges:

  • TRICO Exact Fit: a comprehensive range of original equipment (OE) replacement blades, with almost 150 references giving 99 percent front and rear wiper coverage, engineered to fit straight onto the vehicle with no loose clips or adaptors
  • TRICO Flex: a compact range of multi-clip beam blades, ideal for smaller retail shops and workshops
  • TRICO Neoform: upgrade conventional wipers to the latest beam blade technology
  • TRICO TX: heavy duty wiper blades, specifically engineered in longer lengths and with higher strength steel for fitment to large commercial vehicles

This is the ideal time for factors to be looking at their wiper blade portfolio, as wiper season is coming rapidly.

There are typical signs that wiper blades need to be replaced:

  • Streaking – when the blade doesn’t completely clear the windscreen, leaving streaks of water or debris
  • Chattering – when the blade doesn’t move smoothly across the windscreen
  • Smearing – when the debris or water is smeared across the windscreen, but not removed

TRICO’s Valentin Neagu said: “I’m delighted to see how UKS has increased TRICO sales in the UK. We are here to provide our trade customers and ultimately the consumer with top quality wiper blades.

“At TRICO, we continue to update our product offerings across the globe. UKS believes in the same ethics as we do at TRICO and our partnership will only continue to grow.”
