A few hundred kilometres from Paris, in the Aube department of the Grand Est region in France, lies a small town with just a handful of residents that is home to one of the country’s most important quarries – Société Nouvelle des Carrières de Coussegrey (SNCC).
BKT is set to produce up to 800,000 Pirelli-branded PCR tyres by 2030 for the Indian market, following a strategic agreement announced by both companies today.
Agrigear has strengthened its presence within Ireland’s agricultural community by becoming the Main Sponsor of Contractors, the popular agricultural documentary series on TG4.
A recent technical collaboration between BKT and Massey Ferguson has resulted in three new Agrimax V-Flecto VF tyre sizes developed specifically for the MF 7S Mark 2.
Agrigear reports that this year’s Ploughing Championships was “a great success” and provided the tyre and wheel specialist opportunity to meet farmers, contractors and machinery operators from across Ireland.
BKT is currently making its debut at the Steinexpo in Germany, the trade show for the operators, manufacturers, dealers, and professionals from the quarrying, construction material, and heavy-duty applications industries.
As agricultural machinery continues to increase in size and carrying capacity, protecting soil health has become one of the biggest challenges facing modern farming.
BKT has launched the Tractor of the Year programme for 2027, commencing in Naples, Italy, where leading tractor manufacturers, industry experts, and agricultural journalists begin the selection process for one of the farming industry’s top awards.
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.
