Our workshop tip on water-filled tyres shows what practitioners need to pay attention to.

On the occasion of the site expansion in Bhuj, India, the OTR tyre manufacturer BKT announced a comprehensive growth plan. In three years, an annual production volume of 600,000 tonnes and a turnover of two billion dollars are expected to be reached.

In early February, a delegation from Bohnenkamp AG visited the significantly expanded Bhuj production site of tyre manufacturer BKT in India.

For the vehicle class up to 7.5 tonnes, the Bohnenkamp AG tyre product range impresses with its variety, availability - and the reliable Mirage and Sailun brands. The extensive range of light truck tyres covers the demands of delivery and craft businesses in all conceivable application and transportation scenarios in local, regional and long-distance transport.

From February, the newly developed EM 933 Super excavator tyre will be available from Bohnenkamp. The tread was presented at the latest Bauma trade fair. Now the comfortable and high-traction tyre in size 290/90 - 20 is entering the wholesale range.
