Trelleborg Tires, a leader in the global tyre industry, along with key partner Southwest Tyres, recently reported a successful showcase at the Shaftesbury & Gillingham Show held on 14th and 15th August 2024 at the Turnpike Showground in Motcombe, Dorset. This event provided a valuable opportunity to engage with the local agricultural community and demonstrate the capabilities of the Trelleborg TH500 tyre, which is specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of telehandlers working on hard surfaces.
The Trelleborg TH500 Agro Industrial tyre stands out with its innovative design, tailored for telehandlers that operate in tough environments. With a tightly closed central tread to enhance durability and lifespan, the tyre is built to withstand challenging conditions. Open shoulders ensure effective clean-out, while wider shoulder lugs and reinforced sidewalls offer improved lateral stability and damage prevention. Additionally, the inter-lug terraces boost self-cleaning properties, maintaining consistent traction when the going gets tough. This robust combination makes the TH500 tyre a reliable choice for long-lasting performance, even in the most demanding agricultural settings.
Trelleborg Tires and Southwest Tyres used the Shaftesbury & Gillingham Show as a platform to connect with farmers, offering personalised consultations and expert advice on tyre selection and maintenance. The hands-on approach was well-received by attendees, many of whom took the opportunity to learn more about how the TH500 can enhance their farming operations.
David Miller, Managing Director at Yokohama TWS UK and Ireland, expressed his satisfaction with the event:
"The Shaftesbury & Gillingham Show was a tremendous success. We were delighted to engage with so many members of the farming community and demonstrate how the Trelleborg TH500 tyre can enhance their operations to new heights. The positive feedback we received highlights our deep understanding of farmers’ needs and challenges. This drives our commitment to engineering innovative, technology-driven solutions that support their business growth, reflecting our local presence and solid expertise as part of our brand’s DNA.”
Trelleborg Tires' presence at the show not only highlighted the advanced features of the TH500 tyre but also reinforced the company's commitment to supporting farmers. By providing access to cutting-edge tyre solutions and offering expert consultations, Trelleborg and Southwest Tyres have empowered local farmers to boost both their productivity and sustainability. This approach aligns with the brand’s ethos of developing solutions that cater directly to the unique challenges faced by farmers.
