RETREADING IS RECYCLING

Retreading is the process where selected and inspected worn tyres, called casings, receive a new tread. Only sound and carefully inspected tyre bodies are used in retreading.

The worn tread is buffed away and a new tread is bonded to the tyre body in a process very similar to the manufacture of new tyres. There are several different process techniques, but the ultimate objective is the same, affixing a new tread through the application of heat, time and pressure.

Today's retreads are produced in very modern plants operated by trained specialists. Professional retreaders adhere to the stringent industry standards at every step in the retread process and each retread product can be traced back to the facility that produced it. Only the best worn tyres are used for retread.
