Trelleborg tyres won once again the prestigious “Best Agriculture tyre” award at the 20th edition of Visão Agro Brazil Award for its role in the Brazilian agricultural industry, shortly after receiving the same award at the Visão Agro Centro-Sul edition. The awards ceremony took place in San Paolo – Brazil on December 7th 2023.
As a global leader in agricultural tyres, Trelleborg tyres has been dedicated to supporting Brazilian agribusiness with advanced and sustainable tyre solutions for decades. Featuring compounds made with recycled and natural materials and optimised tread designs, Trelleborg tyres have played a pivotal role in enhancing crop yields and promoting sustainable agricultural practices in Brazil's vital sugar cane sector.
Fabio Meditieri, Sales Director South America of Yokohama TWS, commented: “This award is a testament to the extensive research and unwavering commitment to innovation that we invest in engineering and developing new Trelleborg tyres to meet the diverse needs of farmers across Brazil, including the important sugar cane market with the Trelleborg TM800 Sugar Cane tire. With its extra-large tread pattern offers maximum performance in the field, this tyre is capable of carrying heavy loads and operating at very low pressures, all of which contribute to reduced soil compaction, improved farm productivity, and enhanced crop yields. This year, the Trelleborg TM800 Sugar Cane boasts an even greater load capacity (171D) and a more resistant compound, catering to the demanding operations faced by Brazilian farmers."
Celebrating its 20th edition, the Visão Agro Award aims to recognise suppliers who stand out in areas of transformation and production in the agribusiness sector across the country. The event is held in the city of Ribeirão Preto, which is internationally recognized as the capital of the agribusiness in Brazil.
