Autoparts UK has become a member of the National Tyre Distributors Association, coinciding with the company’s launch of an exclusive range of ORIUM Tyres.

There are six Autoparts branches, five Midwest Motor Factor sites and Monmore Auto Parts joining NTDA membership meaning that group factor manager, Craig McCracken, will also join the NTDA Executive Council.

Founded in 1930, the NTDA is a proactive trade association representing and promoting the interests of the tyre wholesale, distribution and retail sectors of the automotive aftermarket.
The NTDA protects its members’ interests through its influence with regulatory bodies, Government departments, standard setting bodies and other opinion formers that establish industry best practice both in the UK and in Europe. It is consulted whenever new regulations or legislation are being considered and lobbies to ensure that members’ views and concerns are satisfactorily addressed and that the overall regulatory system remains practicable and affordable.
Stefan Hay, NTDA director said: “We are naturally delighted to have Autoparts on board as a full retail member of the Association, especially at a time when the NTDA is experiencing an unprecedented period of membership growth.”

Craig McCracken, Autoparts Group Factor Manager, said “We’re also delighted to be joining NTDA and to be so warmly accepted by the membership. We believe our expanding portfolio of products and services can add significant value to tyre installers and look forward to developing close relationships within the association.”

ORIUM Tyres, the newest brand from Autoparts UK, are manufactured in Europe by one of the world’s largest tyre manufacturers in an ISO 9001-accredited factory, compliant with UNECE regulations.

The ORIUM brand meets the requirements from installers for a quality product, very competitively priced. Based on the guaranteed production quality, the ORIUM brand provides safe tyres for passenger car and light commercial vehicles.

The ORIUM brand is available in four different ranges: Touring, High Performance, Light Truck and SUV.
