Tyre Boss making it even easier to buy with 0% fi nance plans
TYRE Boss have launched a new payment plan to make the purchase of cushion solid tyres easier on the pocket.
The company is off ering a new plan where qualifying candidates could benefi t from a free 0% interest rate for six months.*
The plan allows skip hire and waste recycling companies to invest in quality cushion solid tyres for loading shovels and telehandlers. The tyres outlast pneumatic tyres, and pneumatic tyres with fi ll, thanks
to a super deep tread.
Fitting cushion solids not only reduces tyre wear, but minimises machine downtime and the cost of frequently replacing punctured pneumatic tyres (or worn tyres and fi ll).
The TY cushion solid tyre sets a benchmark for quality cushion solid tyres, and are oil, leachate and cut resistant.
Tyre Boss are exclusive agents for TY cushion solids, and TY have been
producing cushion solids since 1958 and are number one for cushion solid tyre development in fi ve continents.
Victoria Collins, MD of Tyre Boss, said: “We are always looking at the ways new and existing customers can reduce their costs - not only by fi tting quality tyres which will last, but also by spreading the cost with our 0% payment plan.”

new sales records. While the global market grew by over 21% last year, JCB’s sales increased by almost 28%. “This growth drove demand across all of JCB’s product ranges, in particular for Loadall telescopic handlers, where we are now investing in increased global production capacity.” JCB Chairman Lord Bamford said: “The continued growth in global markets in 2018 has seen JCB production rates reach their highest in our history. Employment levels across our plants are also at record highs, and we now employ more than 15,000 people. “In the UK alone we have recruited almost 1,100 people this year, which is superb news for JCB and great news for British manufacturing.” JCB has 22 factories around the world, including 11 in the UK, and JCB’s UK plants now employ a record 7,600 people.
In June, JCB revealed they were investing £50 million in a new British plant to manufacture cabs for their machines in Uttoxeter, Staff ordshire. The factory will open in 2019.
