truckliteTruck-Lite Europe Ltd will be celebrating the 90th anniversary of its Rubbolite brand at this year’s CV Show, which it says has “grown from strength to strength” since its establishment in 1924.

The company will mark the occasion with a special champagne reception at its CV Show stand (5F68) from 12pm on Tuesday 29 April, at which all visitors are welcome.

“From the initial concept of moulding lamps in rubber to increase robustness and reliability, the Rubbolite brand has grown through many years of technical innovations and industry firsts,” said the company.

“Rubbolite has been at the forefront of European lighting.”

The brand became popular amongst users, Truck-Lite says, due to the products’ ability to help lower maintenance costs and solve problems such as broken bulb filaments and cracks in lamp housings.

Aaron Rylance, managing director at Truck-Lite Europe, said: “We are delighted to be celebrating Rubbolite’s 90thbirthday and hold the Rubbolite brand close to our hearts here at Truck-Lite, as it paved the way throughout the UK and set the gold standard for vehicle lighting.

“Since it started in 1924, the brand has continued to support the commercial vehicle industry and its longevity serves as a testimony to the dedication of the past and present employees of Truck-Lite – they are the backbone of the organisation and deserve all the recognition and are looking forward to a century of serving our customers.”
