TECH, known for setting the global standard for proper tyre & wheel service solutions, expands their European presence with the opening of their new Distribution & Training Centre of Excellence in Turnhout, Belgium. The opening of this new Center of Excellence will serve as TECH\u2019s European, Middle Eastern, and African headquarters.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to TECH Americas President & Operations Leader, Mike Murray, \u201cThis was a strategic move that affords us numerous opportunities to better serve and support our EMEA customer base. Our new Belgium Center of Excellence was designed specifically with a state-of-the-art training facility. As the Tyre & Wheel Authority, we know having the world\u2019s best tyre and wheel service products is only one part of the equation. Training on the proper use of TECH products is equally important.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
