Bear-Machines, the specialist in special-purpose machine construction, and HV LeasePartner, the financial services provider operating throughout Europe, are entering into a forward-looking partnership to offer companies in the bus and commercial vehicle industry even more economical financing solutions tailored to their individual needs. The various offers are specially designed for the procurement of the Bear-Cut.
The focus of the collaboration between Bear-Machines and HV LeasePartner is on providing particularly attractive and tailor-made financing solutions specifically for the procurement of Bear-Cut, the first semi-automatic machine for regrooving commercial vehicle and bus tyres. The cooperation between the two companies enables fleet operators and transport companies to reap the benefits of economical and sustainable regrooving of bus, truck and trailer tyres without high initial investments.
HV LeasePartner’s flexible financing models make it much easier for customers to access Bear-Cut technology. This not only reduces the operating costs of the fleet, but also optimises its environmental balance and carbon footprint. This is because regrooving bus and commercial vehicle tyres increases their mileage by up to 25 per cent. This means that one in four newly produced tyres can be saved. Bear-Cut also contributes to the four-life concept of a tyre, which involves regrooving and retreading, and is therefore an important step towards a particularly sustainable circular economy. In addition, the fuel consumption of vehicles is reduced by up to five per cent thanks to the lower rolling resistance of regrooved tyres.
‘This partnership creates clear added value for our customers. The combination of innovative technology and flexible financing, tailored to both the Bear-Cut product and the individual situation of each customer, offers companies an enormous competitive advantage,’ explains Josef Warmeling, partner at Bear-Machines and managing director of Bear-Machines distribution partner axxcelerate. Sebastian Volbert, managing director of HV LeasePartner, says: ‘Our mission is to make innovations accessible to our customers. Bear-Cut is a groundbreaking solution that pays off economically and promotes sustainability. Through our financing models such as operate lease, finance lease, hire purchase and credit, we enable a broad target group in Europe to procure it.’
