TECH Europe: Stepping into the Future with Leading Solutions and Services by Manufacturing Technology Insights<\/strong><\/h3>\n <\/p>\n
80-year old global company Technical Rubber Company (TRC) has been delivering innovative tire repair materials and wheel solutions to its clients. Headquartered in Johnstown, Ohio, TRC has a presence in Italy, China, Japan, and Brazil. TECH Europe is the company\u2019s European headquarters with a Distribution and Training Center of Excellence in Turnhout, Belgium. Acting as the central base in Europe, TECH is carrying TRC\u2019s legacy forward by delivering a complete gamut of solutions and services to address the emerging demands of the companies in the EMEA region.<\/span><\/p>\nThe onset of Brexit and stringent compliance mandates have disrupted the tire and wheel industry in the EMEA region. TECH recognized the need to centralize its operations in order to maximize client engagement. In that pursuit, the company has expanded its presence in Belgium by setting up a distribution and training Center of Excellence in Turnhout. \u201cWith this state-of-the-art distribution center, TECH strengthens its commitment to serve the diverse market segments, including passenger cars, truck, off-the-road (OTR), and agricultural tire service centers with enhanced product availability and improved delivery time,\u201d<\/em> says Tim Verhaeghe, industry thought leader and General Manager of TECH Europe.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”0|0px|12px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.0.48″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/techseamain.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Capture.png” _builder_version=”3.21.1″ z_index_tablet=”500″]<\/p>\n

Walking in lockstep with the market developments, the company has made strategic acquisitions to remain competitive in the marketplace such as acquiring Salvadori S.r.l., an Italian company specialized in tire recycling. Leveraging these capabilities, TRC expertly designs technologies to recycle end of life tires into useful earth-friendly products such as playground equipment, indoor and outdoor furniture, as well as resources for the transportation, harbor and agricultural industries.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”0|0px|19px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.0.48″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.21.1″ z_index_tablet=”500″]<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOur innovation and acquisitions further our agenda of maintaining our position as the leader in the repair, reuse, recycle, repurpose (4R) aspects of the tire and wheels expanse,\u201d says Verhaeghe. We are second to none in defining and adhering to the highest technical standards in all of our offerings.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nFor instance, TECH products undergo a rigorous manufacturing process to ensure they adhere to the industry standards, including ECE 108\/109 and BS AU 159G. Additionally, the manufacturing process of the TECH TPMS sensors is T\u00dcV SUD certified. TECH\u2019s experience and expertise show in its ever-growing solutions portfolio focused on all types of tires, including those for passenger, truck, bicycle, motorbike, agricultural, and off-the-road tires.<\/p>\n
