Goodyear proposes tire re-treading to support a more sustainable and more efficient future. Longer tire life – similar performance to the first life of a new tire, 56% less crude oil is required for production compared to a new tire.
In the current environment, tire re-treading is of great importance. While Europe's Fit-for-55 climate plan primarily encourages greener practices, the industry remains the same. zamis currently facing an increasing cost impact.
According to the Sustainable Reality Survey, three-quarters of fleets see carbon footprint reduction as an important issue, while 42% use re-tread tires, among other sustainability-focused applications.
Marc Preedy, Managing Director of the European Commercial Spare Tire Group, explains: “According to the results of the survey, our customers want to support sustainability as part of the circular economy and zamnow wants to create value for its end customers. 42% of surveyed fleets use re-tread tyres. Above all, the European Commission aims to make Europe carbon neutral by 2050 under the “Green Deal”. Creating a clear opportunity for greater sustainability gains, our latest innovative tires and fleet management solutions help fleets reduce their emissions without increasing the complexity of their day-to-day operations. The Goodyear Recoat program enables fleets to increase overall sustainability.”
By using Goodyear's Tread solutions, leading transport companies can reduce tire costs by 30% and extend tire life by 100% more – equivalent to twice the initial life of a new tyre. Thanks to the Goodyear Recoating process, where available resources are used as much as possible, the amount of crude oil used for production is reduced by 56%.
Goodyear Recoat service ensures tires are regroovable, regroovable and regroovable, giving tires an additional lifespan. This service of Goodyear can be shaped according to the needs of the customers.
Preedy also said: “For many years, fleet operators have chosen Goodyear NextTread recoat solutions to reduce their total operating cost. Now combined with our Goodyear Total Mobility fleet management service, our Goodyear Recoating solutions help fleet operators get one step closer to meeting their sustainability goals. The high residual value of premium Goodyear coatings makes this process both financially and environmentally sustainable.”
More sustainability gains can be achieved within the Goodyear Total Mobility value by creating a sustainable and efficient tire management package for fleet operators with the coating.
End-to-end optimization
The company optimizes the end-to-end logistics of coating material management while working with certified local coating partners.
Coating materials can be checked on-site instead of being sent to a central control point. By shipping only accepted coating materials to Goodyear's coating facilities, unnecessary transportation of non-conforming coating materials across Europe is avoided.
