CEVA Logistics, one of the world’s leading supply chain companies, and Marangoni Commercial & Industrial Tyres, an Italian company specialising in the retreading of industrial, truck and earthmover tyres, have announced a contract spanning more than three years for the transport and distribution of products throughout the country.

Each year the contract runs, CEVA will collect all Marangoni tyres for retreading. These tyres have been pre-selected by Marangoni’s qualified staff from sites around Italy and will be brought to the tyre manufacturer’s northern Italian warehouse in Rovereto. CEVA will distribute both new and regenerated tyres to both retailers and distributors around the country.

“The decision to outsource transport to an external partner is the natural consequence of further developing our company. By appointing CEVA, Marangoni can focus its own resources on the selection of tyres and the sale of its products and services. Logistics is an essential part of our business and we believe CEVA will provide the high level of service we require,” says Brenno Benolglia, Commercial Director of Marangoni Commercial and Industrial Tyres. “CEVA’s reputation for operational excellence and flexibility gives us confidence that we can increase the quality of service to our customers and improve our reliability and speed.”

Adds CEVA’s Vice President Business Development Italy, Gioachino Figlia: “We are honored to count Marangoni among our clients and we are proud to strengthen our presence in the automotive sector following the inauguration of TyreCity. Marangoni will be better able to integrate its transport flows with its production by having reliable and guaranteed service levels combined with full traceability for both its reverse flow logistics and distribution. Our ability to offer agile and creative solutions which match the needs of this important customer will be key to this partnership.”

British firm TyrePal is launching a new tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) to help OEM trailer builders and trailer fleet operators tackle the problem of tyre blowouts on HGV freight trailers.

The TyrePal trailer TPMS indicator consists of TyrePal sensors on each tyre and a robust indicator that can be mounted inside or outside the trailer. The indicator can operate independently of the truck to provide an immediate visual and audible alert when the sensors report rapid pressure loss, tyre overheating, under-inflation or over-inflation.

“Due to the weight distribution and design of HGV trailers, especially double-decker trailers, if tyres pick up slow punctures, they often go unnoticed until it is too late,” explains Peter Tilliotson, business development manager of TyrePal. “When the improperly inflated tyre is forced to work, it heats up and can cause blowouts. This leads to downtime and risks hazard to the driver and other road users. Apart from being very unsafe it will also increase fuel usage significantly.”

The device operates on an internal battery – automatically recharged when power is available, either from the trailer supply or by connection to the trailer lights.

When the trailer is not in use, the indicator goes into a sleep mode and automatically turns back on when there is any vibration, for example the opening of trailer doors. This means that it can remain on standby for up to ten weeks on a single charge.

The system can communicate with a TyrePal TeleTPMS module to provide complete on-line monitoring of the trailer from the fleet office, including full GPS tracking. This allows fleet managers to track their vehicles and monitor tyre pressure remotely.

With its participation at SITL Europe 2016, one of the major transport and logistics exhibitions, which was held in Paris just a few days ago, Marangoni has once again confirmed its interest in the French market. Marangoni already enjoys a leading position in sales and service in the sector of tyres for industrial handling equipment through its subsidiary MIM, Marangoni Industrie Manutention.

During the event, Marangoni presented the Eltor EVO range, the latest line of super-elastic tyres for industrial handling equipment. The company says that this new series – developed with the support provided by two important international fork lift truck manufacturers who use Marangoni tyres as original equipment on their vehicles – has just over one year since its official launch “seen quite substantial levels of growth”.

The use of special compounds allows the new product to reduce rolling resistance by 8%, with consequent energy savings, meaning electricity and fuel. Moreover, its optimised structure, thanks to a deeper tread, not only reduces energy consumption by 20%, but also produces 15% less heat, with a consequent increase in tyre life (+10%). These tried-and-tested advantages all translate into significant savings in running costs for users.

Directional stability and excellent traction are two other distinguishing features of the Eltor EVO range, available in sizes 8”- 20”, in the black or “non-marking” version.

In addition to the Eltor EVO line, visitors at the show had the chance to appreciate other products in the Marangoni offering, designed to meet all the needs of the industrial tyre segment.
