Agrigear attends 2026 The Tire Cologne

The team from Agrigear once again attended the biennial The Tire Cologne trade show in Germany from 9th-11th June, where they paid a visit to a number of key suppliers, including BKT.

On its 400 sqm stand, BKT showed off its latest products designed and developed to meet the evolving needs of various sectors, from agriculture to agroforestry, from industrial to earthmoving.

The spotlight was on three new tyres, the Earthmax SR 30 M, Skid Max SR 720, and Maglift Plus.

The Earthmax SR 30 M, in particular, proves to be an essential solution for loading, unloading, and transport operations of medium-sized loaders employed in industrial and construction sites, combining fuel efficiency and driving comfort without compromising on traction. This combination of benefits stems from an enhanced and versatile tread design that ensures excellent performance on any surface and from reduced rolling resistance.

Another product on display was the Ridemax Frost, a highly efficient tyre on snow and ice, as demonstrated in tests by UTAC, one of the world’s renowned testing centres. Indeed, this solution has been designed by BKT to ensure high performance in extreme winter conditions by means of a special cold-resistant compound and a specifically developed tread that reduces the risk of skidding on ice.

“We wanted to take to The Tire Cologne our flagship products for agriculture as well as for the other industries where BKT is known for its reliability and its high-quality products. Each of these solutions has been designed and developed to precisely meet the specific needs of every application having different complexities and operational requirements,” commented Lucia Salmaso, managing director, BKT Europe.

“By taking part in this event, BKT reaffirms its commitment to developing increasingly high-performance tyres that are versatile and tailored to operators’ needs, while also consolidating our international presence and direct dialog with partners and customers worldwide,” she added.

Visitors could also find the agricultural tyres Agrimax V-Flecto and Agrimax Procrop, along with Portmax PM 93 PLUS, a solution for straddle carriers in port container handling operations, and Forestmax, the tyre for forest applications.

In addition to its products, BKT shared its expertise and latest technologies at The Tire Cologne, turning the trade show into a real meeting point where market demand and innovation meet.
