Suppliers to car manufacturers, have always been subject to very strict requirements with regard to internal quality assurance. The standard that all suppliers of European and North American car manufacturers must meet has recently been modified, updated and tightened. To be fully informed about the information relevant to us, we recently conducted an internal course for our colleagues in the product department with the support of the Danish Technological Institute. 

A new newsletter a new test device. Due to the very positive effect our Triscan Test Center has on our customer service and internal quality assurance service, we continue to invest in expanding it. Our newly built ABS tester is the latest addition. Here we describe how this works and why it is so valuable.

Maybe you already know that our product managers visit our manufacturers during the selection and review process? You may also know that our product managers perform regular audits of our manufacturers and we carry out spot checks on incoming goods in our warehouses? But did you also know that we carry out a quality control on site - even if "on site" is far away from home?  

2017 was, in many ways, a fantastic year for Triscan. First, the year ended with us winning the award as supplier of the year at the Auto Awards, furthermore keeping pace with the expansion of the steering part programme was succesful as well. The programme is still the most comprehensive in Europe, the product group has made significant progress, and the expansion of parts for both electric and hybrid cars has been welcomed by our customers.

To ensure a high level of service and quality, we continuously expand our in-house test facilities. Our latest acquisition is an EGR valve tester. In the following  paragraphs we will explain why in-house testing equipment has high priority for us and how the EGR valve-tester works.

At Triscan we continuously update and improve our product range. We have had flashers in our range for a long time, and in order to keep up with recent developments, we are now implementing electronic flashers for LED bulbs.

We have previously reported how error codes can be misleading and cause mechanics to falsely question the quality of a replaced part. Recently, our Product coordinator Søren Nielsen experienced himself how the error code reading on his BMW 320i (E90) pointed in the wrong direction.

An increasing number of cars are no longer only equipped with a single water pump. To supplement the main pump, electrically powered additional water pumps may be included in the cooling system for different reasons. That is why we have expanded our water pump range with 35 references of additional water pumps.

With more than 100 new cables, Triscan now offers no less than 3,430 references - covering more than 96% of the European fleet within the primary cable types.

However, the cable programme also includes gear shift cables, choke cables, accelerator cables, speedometer cables, bonnet and compartment cabels as well as trailer cables. In other words, we cover virtually every need.

Once again, the storage capacity of the central warehouse is exhausted, and we have now decided to use the last free space of our premises in Brabrand to add a 2,820 m2 warehouse at 12 meters altitude, which will be completed by the end of 2018.
