Since 1985

From one machine
to a leading brand

The company had its inception in 1985, with the aim to serve earthmoving tyre users in the area when there was no presence of such a concept in Rajasthan. We have grown from a tyre service provider into a complete tyre solution provider, and have become one of the pioneering units in the country.

Our company was the first in India to install an OTR radial tyre retreading facility, for one particular size of tyre, and has since added facilities for other sizes. Starting with one machine, the company today has several, covering a wide range of OTR tyre sizes.

We are a leading exporter of tyre repair materials such as tyre repair patches and tube patches, and in India we supply our products across more than 20 states, from Jammu & Kashmir to Tamil Nadu.

Tyre retreading

Free tool · No registration

Is that OTR tyre
repairable, or is it scrap?

Answer eleven questions about construction, injury location, cord condition, ply rating and prepared injury size. You get a verdict, the criterion behind it, and the correct patch size — in about three minutes.

The repair-or-replace decision is too often made on gut feel. It should be made on criteria.

  • Eleven questions on construction, injury location, cord condition, ply rating and prepared injury size
  • A verdict, and the criterion behind it
  • The correct patch size, if the tyre is repairable
  • Free, no registration, about three minutes
  • A preliminary, decision-support assessment — repairs must still be carried out by a qualified tyre technician
