TiP Trailer services name change to TiP group
from 2013 the name ‘TiP Trailer services’ has been used and according to bob fast, TiP President & ceo, it does not represent all the company’s business entities and activities today. Therefore, the brand name is changing to TiP group. “our brand name changes to the TiP group trademark to better illustrate our business activities, asset portfolio and geographic coverage. however, our mission remains the same: to be the trusted partner for our customers, delivering connected solutions and powering sustainable supply chains” he explained.
“we are proud to open this new chapter! we started our business with renting trailers, but today we offer many more assets: of course a broad selection of trailers, but also trucks, vans, tankers, swap bodies and many more. we lease and rent the assets, but also offer many services: like Maintenance and repair, roadside Assistance and the sale of used equipment. Additionally, we offer a broad portfolio of digital solutions under TiP insight and in all our business activities, we have a focus on sustainability and a better future for us and our planet. TiP group is a good name to embrace our broad business scope,“ added henrike wilkens, global Marketing director.
“our customers and partners will see the changes come to live in our communication and our channels:
our website: a new UrL and also an impressive make-over and modern look
our social media channels have new names: visit us on Linkedin, facebook, YouTube
‘TiP sales’ is now ‘TiP Used equipment’ and the website address is TiP-Used.com
The login to fleetradar and fleetconnect will change to a TiP-group.com UrL”
customers can be assured that TiP and its business activities remain the same as before! our brand name changes to the TiP group trademark. our legal name remains TiP Trailer services and as such is part of TiP group,” concluded henrike.
Meanwhile, TiP and schmitz cargobull have a set digital milestone for frictionless digital data provision. The TiP group is partnering with schmitz cargobull to integrate their standardized telematic interfaces for the respective systems. it is now possible for transport companies using telematics systems from schmitz cargobull and TiP insight, TiP’s telematic solution, to access the data provided for all their vehicles via their individual access points, regardless of the telematics hardware installed or the telematics portal used.
This straightforward and convenient solution is made possible thanks to the cooperation between the two providers. “for transport companies, the topics of data standardization, inter-operability and consolidation, and thus open interfaces, are key expectations to make the digital real,” explained Theo de vries, commercial vice President M&r and TiP insight, and Marnix Lannoije, Managing director of schmitz cargobull Telematics, in a joint statement.
