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 />
