Thule Easy-Fit

Thule are proud to announce that the Easy-fit snow chain, the easiest snow chain ever to fit on the car, has been awarded the prestigious Technical & Safety Innovation of the Year at the CAT Awards - a respected publication within the UK motor industry. The award is given to Thule Easy-Fit for its ground breaking technology making the fitting of the snow chain easier than ever before. The commendation of the award is proof for Thule that they are once again at the forefront of innovation and product development.

Thule won its award because its snow chains are so easy to fit to the vehicle. The name says it all: "THULE Easy-Fit" brings the conventional passenger car snow chains standard up to the next level, with a huge step forward in simplicity for the consumer.

The consumer is always looking for ease of use as a key catalyst in their buying decision, this is especially important when it comes to snow chains. The installation of a chain is of course going to be made in sub-zero temperatures and usually at a time when you want to be doing something active and enjoyable, so the quicker the chain is mounted - the quicker you can continue with your active lifestyle. "THULE Easy-Fit" is a true innovation both from a technical and a design perspective.
