Industrial and port tyres
Materials handling equipment is key to logistics. Just like road-based vehicles, materials handling machinery requires the right tyres to function at its best. October’s edition of Tyres & Accessories examines themes including how industrial and port tyre technology is handling heavier equipment, longer duty cycles and the rapid electrification of terminal fleets. From compound changes aimed at minimising heat build-up on quayside straddle carriers, to non-marking solid and resilient designs for specialist warehouses, manufacturers are chasing uptime and lower energy usage as much as traditional tread life. With that in mind, our feature will look at the latest products and trends impacting this sector, so you don’t have to do the heavy lifting.

Tyre wholesale
Tyre wholesalers are a vital link in the supply chain, connecting manufacturers with retailers. Their knowledge, investment and market expertise often underpin the success of major international tyre brands at a local level. Alongside established names, many wholesalers offer exclusive private-brand ranges that help their customers stand out from competitors. In our October edition, we examine the tyre wholesale sector, highlighting distributors based locally as well as businesses supplying the UK market. The issue also covers the latest developments, trends and insights affecting wholesalers at home and overseas.
