The Marangoni Group recently acquired Recamax Reifen GmbH. The acquisition allowed Marangoni to further improve its service levels to German customers, specifically regarding logistics, service, and technical-product consulting.
Aside from the acquisition, Marangoni modernized its plant in Rovereto, Italy in 2015. The renovation included the installation of the latest generation of Banbury mixer to improve the quality of earthmoving tread compounds, making them more performing for heavy-duty applications, the introduction of new rubber compounds for specific applications and a shearography machine.
The shearographic technology identifies all possible defects, both during initial inspection of the casing and final testing of the retread, further improving the already high quality standard of Marix Marangoni retreaded earthmover tyres.
Marangoni also introduced the new software program “Marangoni Tyre Control System” and the Tyre Management. The Tyre Control System helps its dealer network to monitor tyres on customer fleets and customers to maintain them. These specific programs have been launched with the support of its marketing department, coordinated by Giovanni De Bei, Marketing Manager Industrial a & Retread.
Luca Mai, Sales Executive Manager for Marangoni Commercial and Earthmover Tyres, stated: “By adopting a high-quality and particularly customer-oriented retreading process, Marangoni Marix tyres can ensure excellent performance levels that are equivalent to those of premium-brand new tyres, guaranteeing considerable reductions in hourly costs and representing the best possible response to the market needs for efficiency and cost savings. Marix Marangoni retreaded tyres are also extremely competitive against low-cost new Asian-made tyres, as well as having a much lower hourly cost than the latter.”
