TENNECO

Tenneco is the parent company of Australia's market leading replacement shock absorber and exhaust system brands, Monroe Shock Absorbers and Walker / Lukey Exhaust Systems. From perfecting the first self-oiled, single-barreled tyre pump in the USA back in 1918, the Monroe Auto Equipment Company developed what they called a shock eliminator to make cars more comfortable and easier to control in the 1920's. Within 25 years, the Monroe-Matic, the first double action shock absorber, was the best known shock absorber in the world, used by most American car makers through the 1950s. From that point on the Monroe shock absorber range has been synonymous with enhancing road safety and comfort through optimum control and tyre grip. Today, parent company Tenneco is one of the world's largest automotive component manufacturers and marketers, with brands such as Walker and Lukey Performance joining Monroe as leading Original Equipment and Aftermarket suppliers of choice in Australia and across the world. Marinelli PR provides Tenneco with marketing support along with trade customer and end / user focused communications services.

To best summarise the quality of service that you can expect from Marinelli PR, here are two testimonials from two of Australia's largest automotive product manufacturers. (Many more available upon request).

"We lacked structure and co-ordination in our customer and public relations activities before we contracted Marinelli PR. We are delighted with the high level of service, complete attention to detail, and wide contacts and direct target customer media exposure that this company has delivered to Hella Australia to date." Hella Australia

"Your company's expertise and commitment of near enough not being good enough is what made the production of our export engine brochure a pleasure in comparison to many previous projects that we have undertaken." Holden Engine Operations.

"We used Marinelli PR some eleven years ago and enjoyed press coverage that was unparalleled in our industry. Then after taking our PR in house and then through changes of management working with other PR companies, we came back to Marinelli PR in 2010 and it was like we had never left. We are back as a leader in our media coverage and our trade and end-user customer facing marketing projects have ramped up greatly, largely due to the efforts of Marinelli PR. Tenneco Australia
