Pailton Steering Systems: Extending Vehicle Life
http://pailtonsteeringsystems.blogspot.com/2012/03/extending-vehicle-life.html
Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Wednesday, 14 March 2012. We have noticed an increase in aftermarket sales over the last 18 months, which bears out the extension of the vehicle life, but along with a demand, come profit opportunities, and we are aware that there are many imported products from low cost countries floating around the aftermarket. Purchasing OE spares may seem a bit against the grain as we all know they are expensive right? View my complete profile.

Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Monday, 19 March 2012. Have you noticed the press articles about how many other economies are doing better than the Euro zone countries and even the UK? It has been part of our strategy even to investigate these large growing markets. Last week I attended a Russian Aerospace and Automotive sector event organised by the UKTI. What are your fears or concerns? Wednesday, 14 March 2012. We have noticed an increase in aftermarket sales ...

Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Wednesday, 21 December 2011. Military vehicle industry on the up? Add to that the announcement that the Australian government has announced an order for 1300 Hawkei Vehicles from Thales and it looks like everyone is going to be quite busy next year. It is just a shame that it takes armed conflict and IED's to boost economies. Australian government commit to 1300 Armoured Hawkei vehicles from Thales. Monday, 12 December 2011. Steve ...

Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Monday, 16 January 2012. Will Electric Steering ever make it to Heavy Commercial? As the trend for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles is toward electric power assisted steering (EPAS) and ever heavier vehicles are converting to EPAS such as the. Ford F150 Pick up truck. How much longer will it be before Heavy Commercial Vehicles get EPAS? Suggests that steer by wire will have reached 25% of the agricultural vehicles by 20...

Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Tuesday, 24 January 2012. Getting Social, is it for Businesses or just kids? There is a lot of talk in marketing circles about the buzz around Social Media. There is also a lot of misunderstanding about what Social media is. Of course everyone knows that social media is Facebook and Twitter right? You are preventing your fans from interacting with you and your other fans, blocking up the viral flood.

Pailton Steering Systems: Trade Shows, Marketing opportunity or pain the rear?
http://pailtonsteeringsystems.blogspot.com/2012/02/trade-shows-marketing-opportunity-or.html
Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Monday, 27 February 2012. Trade Shows, Marketing opportunity or pain the rear? For years (from 1969 till 1996) Pailton grew organically without ever attending a trade show. About 16 years ago, Pailton exhibited at the IAA commercial. Also, if you don’t bother telling anyone you are there, how will you ensure footfall to your stand? If you don’t differentiate yourself, how will anyone know your USP? And will be doing the same things...

Pailton Steering Systems: Apprentices, are all schemes equal?
http://pailtonsteeringsystems.blogspot.com/2012/02/apprentices-are-all-schemes-equal.html
Thoughts on the industries that we serve and the effects on our industry. Friday, 3 February 2012. Apprentices, are all schemes equal? We don't think so. A number of apprenticeship programmes have recently been slated in the press for being ineffective and not offering the necessary training required to develop the skill sets needed. Pailton has been running a successful apprenticeship scheme for over 17 years and leads by example. All share a keen interest in engineering and a desire to succeed. Enginee...
