The key challenge for automotive professionals: effectively managing seasonal tires

Every year, in garages, auto centers, repair shops, and dealerships, seasonal tire management – winter and summer tires – presents a significant logistical challenge.

When a customer drops off their tires for storage, teams must be able to precisely identify who owns these tires and which season they are for. Without a reliable and organized system, this process quickly becomes time-consuming and error-prone, directly impacting the quality of service provided.

‍

Why is this management so complex?

‍

• Tires are often stored in large quantities and mixed together, which complicates their
  individual assignment.
• Winter and summer tires have different characteristics and must be clearly differentiated
  to avoid any confusion.
• Without clear identification, finding a customer's specific tires can take a
  valuable amount of time.
• At the end of the season, contacting customers to retrieve their tires becomes difficult if the inventory
  is not properly identified.

This disorganization leads to serious consequences for professionals: loss of time, increased costs, customer dissatisfaction, and sometimes even conflicts related to lost or incorrectly swapped tires.

Critical challenges and consequences for garages and auto centers

The challenges associated with seasonal tire management are numerous and crucial:

• Tire assignment errors or loss: swapping tires between customers or losing
  stored tires is a real risk that damages trust and generates costs
  Additional.
• Significant management time: teams spend excessive time locating the
  tires corresponding to each customer, thus slowing down overall service.
• Customer tracking difficulties: without clear identification, it's complicated to know which
  tires are still in stock and to make the necessary follow-ups to retrieve tires
  at the end of the season.
• Negative impact on professional image: poorly organized service harms the reputation
  of the garage or auto center, which can affect customer loyalty.
• Financial losses: forgotten or uncollected tires can lead to material
  losses and additional costs.

The Gen’étiq solution: a tire labeling solution specially designed for professionals

Aware of these challenges, Gen’étiq has developed a simple, economical, and effective solution: the tire identification label. Specifically designed for the needs of garages, auto centers, and workshops, this solution optimizes the management of winter/summer tires by facilitating their identification, tracking, and storage.

How does this solution work?

‍

• The labels are packaged in A4 sheets containing 4 labels per sheet,
  corresponding to the 4 tires of a vehicle.
• These labels can be printed on a standard office printer, whether laser
  or inkjet, which avoids any heavy investment in equipment.
• Each season, the labels can be printed in a different color (for
  example, blue for winter tires, red for summer tires), thus facilitating the
  quick visual identification.
• For professionals managing high volumes, Gen’étiq also offers labels
  in rolls, compatible with thermal transfer printers, ensuring enhanced
  resistance and durability over time.

  allowing for effective customer reminders.
• Significant time savings: technical teams spend less time on tire management

  unambiguous management.
