European distributor for automatic tyre inflation systems, Celerity DRS, has appointed Andre Gerken as General Manager, effective 1 March 2023.
Gerken, who has worked as Regional Sales Manager for the company for over five years, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the position, helping to drive the company into its next stage of growth.
“We have a strong team from across various countries and I look forward to growing and developing strong relations as the automatic tyre inflation industry faces new opportunities with the new R141 Regulation,” said Gerken.
“Andre has been an integral part of our organisation,” said Celerity DRS CEO, Brian Hall.
“He has shown passionate leadership skills from the outset and we know his valuable expertise will help move the company forwards.”
Celerity DRS has been P.S.I.’s exclusive partner since 2017, growing the business to a good position for the upcoming R141 regulation which requires all trailers built in Europe after July 2024 to be equipped with either an Automatic Tyre Inflation System (ATIS) or Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
Celerity DRS GmbH is based in Recklinghausen, Germany, centrally located to cover the entire European region and is part of the Bremsen Technik Group.
