Our Services & Process
Tyre Inspection
All casings undergo a thorough examination. A visual examination is followed by shearography inspection, in addition casings are checked for nail holes with state of the art detector equipment, this detects inner liner and casing perforations in crown and sidewall.
Pressure Check
All tyres are pressured checked to ensure safety and fuel efficiency.
Get to the heart of your tyres
To ensure that a retread tyre will offer the best possible performance, any defects must be identified. One of the most common defects in a radial tyre are separations within the casings, particularly in super singles due to the high level of lateral scrub. Unfortunately, these are also the hardest to find, as they are often deep within the belt construction under the tread.
Vulcanisation
Vulcanisation takes place in the latest segmented tyre presses, which allows curing and tread moulding to take place with minimum distortion of the casing.
Bead to Bead Remoulds
New sidewall veneer is automatically applied prior to building the new tread. A computerised tyre builder extrudes the unique high mileage compound in a continuous ribbon onto the casing. This ensures every tyre is manufactured to precise profile dimensions and weight.
Buffing and Preparation
The old tread is removed using a computerised buffing machine. This will automatically reduce the casing to the exact diameter, profile and surface texture required. The casing is then inspected and damages removed, cleaned and rebuilt to precise tolerances.
