Scania add TyreWatch to R & M contracts

Simply Waste Solutions are a recycling-led waste management company for businesses based across London, the home counties, Oxford and Bristol. They are responsible for around 24,000 collections a week, managing more than 120,000 tonnes of waste and recycling with a service success rate of over 99%.

To achieve this, Simply Waste rely on a modern fleet of over 50 vehicles across their sites. Scania Heathrow supply their vehicles on a full R & M contract covering all scheduled maintenance and tyres. However, with daily operations across waste recycling and transfer stations their tyres naturally experience a higher frequency of damage. To help control this avoidable and unnecessary cost, Scania Heathrow selected TyreWatch continuous tyre monitoring to provide real-time visibility of every tyre issue and to maximise vehicle uptime.

Glenn Sherwood, co-founder of TyreWatch, commented: "due to the success of TyreWatch on all new vehicles, Scania Heathrow have already decided to retrofit the system across every Simply Waste vehicle at their PMIs. This is a terrific achievement and an endorsement of our sustainable approach to tyres."
