The move strengthens TIP’s capabilities in trailer refurbishment, an area of growing demand due to the rising cost of new equipment and corporate environmental and sustainability priorities, TIP Group said in a press release.

Founded in 2022, TAG operates a workshop with 41 bays and employs a workforce of 105, including 85 mechanics.

TIP Group has confirmed that all TAG employees will join TIP, allowing for continuity of services and expertise.

With this acquisition, TIP now operates 30 locations across the UK, positioning itself to enhance refurbishment, damage repairs, servicing, and MOT preparation for its fleet and clients. T

AG’s central location is expected to support TIP’s logistical operations and improve service offerings for existing and new customers.

“Acquiring TAG will significantly enhance our ability to extend the life of our fleet and expand our offerings to both existing and new customers,” said Mike Furnival, managing director UK & Ireland at TIP Group. “The workshop’s central location will facilitate trailer refurbishment, damage repairs, servicing, and MOT preparation.”
