INDUSTRYNEWS Let It Snow! »»It doesn’t usually take much snow before most vehicles, probably using quiet and fuel efficient summer tyres, start to slip. Businesses needing to travel about as part of their trade are particularly likely to lose business if it snows, so thinking about how the business will cope in snowy weather really is a strategic issue. If you aren’t using winter tyres then the next best option is to use AutoSock. These reusable tyre socks, sold in pairs, can be pulled over the driving wheels when the road conditions look particularly tricky, or after a vehicle has got stuck. They grip to snow and ice, thanks to their high tech materials which maximise the available dry friction, and make a significant difference to vehicles on winter tyres. Easy to fit, light and easy to store; AutoSock is available for almost all vehicle tyre sizes from cars, vans, HGVs and fork lifts.
