If you missed the Asian Tyre & Rubber Conference in India last month, you can get copies of topics discussed there from the Tire Retread & Repair Information Bureau (TRIB).
David Stevens, managing director of TRIB, was a featured speaker at the conference. “The conference provided a great opportunity for me to be directly exposed to a rapidly changing India and its fast-growing tire industry,” he says.
Stevens’ presentation covered:
* What TRIB is and what it does to promote and defend the retread and repair industries worldwide;
* An overview of the US retreading market and a look at global trade activities for retreaded tires and casings; and
* A look at one potential cause of chamber fires and ways to prevent them.
