With the appointment of Peter Bogdan Kierklo as Sales Manager with responsibility for Eastern Europe, Triscan in earnest begin to target for especially Poland and Russia. "The markets seem mature and we therefore believe that the timing is just right ," Sales and Marketing Director Steen Ray Pedersen says. The reason for choosing Peter Bogdan Kierklo as Triscans new Sales Manager is largely due to the linguistic and cultural abilities that he possesses. Peter is originally born in Poland and came to Denmark in 1984 where he trained to be a mechanical engineer at Odense Technical College.

It is now almost 2 years since we expanded our main warehouse in Aarhus with 1,700 m2 - and although 2 new warehouses in Germany also have been added, we are in need of more space

It might sound as big words but nevertheless it is not empty rhetoric. Having included 235 new references for Asian car models, Triscan now offers the largest and most comprehensive program - primarily within handbrake cables and clutch cables, but also gear shift cables and accelerator cables (all references are expected to be in stock by the end of January).

Triscan increases Europe's widest program in brake hoses – such as brake hoses for Volvo V40, Hyundai IX20, Peugeot 508, Seat Toledo 2012 - and Mitsubishi Outlander. With these new additions, Triscan’s program of brake hoses now covers more than 2500 references and will be updated on a regular basis.

As usual Triscan’s brake hoses are equipped with bushings, fittings and protection devices according to OEM specifications, but in addition they also include banjo bolts and copper washers on the brake hoses where available.

In the new 12-paged product information brochure, you will find examples of the most common problems as well as a brief description of what may be the cause if damage occurs. We hope this brochure will help our customers evaluate what the cause of a problem with a brake disc could be.

The symptoms are listed in three categories:

It is not a surprise to anyone that the aftermarket is going through an unstable and uncertain period. Without exception, all European markets are still affected – to a greater or lesser extent – by the economic crisis that started in 2008. In addition to this, in some countries the aftermarkets have also been affected by the fact that many consumers replace their old cars by  new cars – in particular the micro-cars –  of which many may never in their lifetime go to a garage on the free aftermarket.

In order to meet an increasing demand for gear shift cables, Triscan now introduces more than 100 references within gear shift cables, primarily for European car makes.

We offer gear shift cables for a large number of French car makes, as well as Alfa Romeo (Mito), Fiat (e.g. 500, Grand Punto and Ducato), Ford, Mercedes Viano/Vito, Opel, Toyota, VW and many others.

All cables are of our usual OE quality.

Triscan expands the existing program of high quality drive shaft and gaiter boots – now it also includes Duraboot universal boots for drive shafts and steering racks. With the new type of universal boots, we offer our customers a third alternative within drive shaft and steering rack boots.

The universal boots are delivered with clamps and grease

Triscan has increased the number of references within the ABS ring program – the program now contains 128 references including ABS rings for Toyota, Mercedes, Peugeot, Hyundai, Honda, Volvo and many others.

Besides the regular ABS-rings, the programme also contains magnetic ABS rings.

The ABS rings can be ordered over Triweb – if you wish to have an immediate and complete overview of the latest references, click here.
