TS 9047

TS 9047 is a service standard dealing with the general rules and classification of tyre and tube repair shops. It addresses how this type of automotive service business is defined at a general level and how it is distinguished from similar workshop categories.

What general rules and classification mean here

In standards of this kind, classification provides a common way to describe a workshop’s activity area, service scope, and basic organisational identity. Tyre repair may involve puncture repair, removal and refitting, balancing, or related support tasks, but the role of TS 9047 is not to prescribe each technical repair method in detail; it sets the framework used to identify and organise the workshop type.

Tyre and tube repair shops occupy an important place in vehicle maintenance and road safety. Because tyres and inner tubes are the components that connect a vehicle to the road, clear naming and classification help define the service type, the business structure, and the operational profile. This standard is centered on that shared classification logic.

• Defines the general framework for tyre and tube repair shops.
• Provides common terminology for classifying service workshops.
• Covers businesses involved in tyre and tube repair services.
• Its focus is on general rules and identification rather than detailed repair methods.
