SKF and ERIKS – Meet your maintenance skills gap with confidence
04 December 2025
AGING ASSETS, leaner teams and tighter budgets mean maintenance departments are being asked to do more with less. That is where ERIKS and SKF are making a difference. As SKF’s first Maintenance Partner in the UK and Ireland, ERIKS provides access to the tools, techniques and technical expertise that companies struggle to maintain in-house.
The skills gap is a real problem. Many are facing shortages of experienced maintenance engineers, and the knowledge required now covers a broader range than ever before. Working with ERIKS and SKF is not just a way to fill that gap, but to future-proof your approach to maintenance, with services that are standardised, certified and scalable.
