BERU launches new support-focused website<br />
Federal-Mogul Motorparts<br />
today announced<br />
the launch of<br />
a new website for its<br />
ignition brand, BERU.<br />
<strong>The</strong> update brings with it a<br />
host of changes to improve<br />
ease of use, to add support<br />
pages and to ensure compatibility<br />
across a range of devices<br />
including smartphones<br />
and tablets.<br />
Several new features make<br />
the website more useful to<br />
customers, including downloadable<br />
catalogues, trouble-tracers,<br />
technical brochures<br />
and a ‘find my part’<br />
section. <strong>The</strong> focus of the<br />
new website’s development<br />
was on enhancing the product<br />
support function, which<br />
prompted the creation of a<br />
newly developed, state-ofthe-art<br />
digital trouble-tracer<br />
Europart acquisition continues<br />
Digraph’s growth strategy<br />
<strong>The</strong> UK’s fastest-growing commercial vehicle motor factor<br />
business, Digraph, has reached another milestone in its<br />
aggressive expansion plans with the acquisition of Oldburybased<br />
Europart. <strong>The</strong> agreement boosts Digraph’s national<br />
infrastructure significantly, accelerating delivery times<br />
with faster, off-the-shelf deliveries to commercial vehicle<br />
fleet operators and truck and trailer repairers in the West<br />
Midlands.<br />
Now trading as Digraph, the existing Europart team<br />
will remain in the business, ensuring customers continue<br />
to receive exceptional levels of service. <strong>The</strong> move<br />
sees Digraph further enhancing its stock portfolio by<br />
strengthening its relationship with the German-based<br />
Europart, Europe’s leading distributor of commercial vehicle<br />
parts.<br />

“We are proud of the website<br />
and all the new features<br />
it introduces,” explains Ronald<br />
De Wilde, Brand Manager,<br />
BERU, Federal-Mogul Motorparts,<br />
EMEA. “We are always<br />
looking to deliver useful support<br />
for technicians, garage<br />
owners and distributors,<br />
and websites are an important<br />
touch point in facilitating<br />
that support and growing<br />
our relationship with them.<br />
<strong>The</strong> BERU website update<br />
includes some excellent<br />
features, some of which we<br />
have introduced following<br />
extremely helpful customer<br />
feedback.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> website also features<br />
many high-resolution images<br />
and benefits from a simpler<br />

commented: “<strong>The</strong> Digraph mission is to further improve<br />
off-the-shelf availability and speed of delivery to service the<br />
needs of fleet operators, commercial vehicle repairers and<br />
parts resellers. We are doing this through major investments<br />
in stock ranges, new branches, delivery fleet and support<br />
initiatives.<br />
“Europart has a strong national presence as well as a<br />
traditional, local customer base. <strong>The</strong> acquisition enables us<br />
to provide customers nationwide with an even quicker, more<br />
efficient response from our branches as we continue to<br />
build on Digraph’s reputation for exemplary service. We are<br />
planning further investments and additions to our branch<br />
network as we continue to shake up the commercial vehicle<br />
sector.”<br />
