How do you work with end users and equipment manufacturers to develop OTR tyres that can increase productivity and efficiency?
OEMs and end-use customers have a variety of requirements that they expect their tyres to meet. They must be able to travel over a wide range of terrain and withstand use in harsh operating environments, among other things. Hence BKT continually focuses its efforts on improving rubber compounds and tread patterns. By doing so, we ensure better performance in various applications, improve comfort for equipment operators and minimise unplanned downtime. More importantly, we have dedicated teams of field engineers, who actively collect customer feedback and work with the R&D team on ensuring better quality products and addressing any issues.
Tyres are integral to any OTR equipment design as they ensure mobility and productivity. The wrong selection can greatly impede an end-use customers ability to get their work done. Hence, we collaborate with OEMs 鈥� both local and global, OEMs in order to design and manufacture high-quality tyres that cater to various regions, areas, terrains, and applications while increasing the life and experience of the tyre.
