Reveals remanufacturing success one year on

Roadlink International is celebrating the one year anniversary of the launch of its brand new commercial vehicle (CV) caliper remanufacturing facility, revealing a significant increase in demand.

The new facility in Willenhall, West Midlands, was officially opened by Society of Motor Manufacturers & Traders (SMMT) chief executive, Mike Hawes on Monday 14 March 2016 with more than 50 dignitaries from the trade and local area in attendance.

Since the £700k investment, Roadlink has had a busy year with its larger facility, advanced equipment and increase in staff allowing the CV supplier to remanufacture calipers at a faster rate without compromising quality.

Roadlink’s distribution and remanufacturing processes are audited and approved to ISO9001 international standards, together with ISO14001 and its ‘Investor in People’ status, demonstrating its commitment to delivering a first-class range and service, from production right through to sales.

Keith Sedgley, Roadlink joint managing director, said: “It has been a busy and successful year with our new facility allowing us to meet the continuing increase in demand for remanufactured calipers. The CV parts trade recognises the beneficial impact of using remanufactured parts and we are keen to promote the process to the wider market.

“The investment has secured our status as a CV caliper remanufacturing leader, enabling us to carry out the labour-intensive reman process in an efficient manner while ensuring quality and traceability. All of our remanufactured calipers are restored back to their original quality after undergoing a series of strict tests and procedures, offering customers considerable savings.”

As one of the leading suppliers of parts for commercial vehicles, Roadlink currently offers a complete range of new and remanufactured braking solutions, including calipers and brake shoes as well as an extensive range of pads, discs and drums.
