RTF 2008 Qingdao Exhibition Opens

Following a year of preparation, the 5th China International Rubber & Tyre Industry (RTF) exhibition opened its doors today. From the outset it is clear that the show is dominated by large numbers of mainly Chinese manufacturers looking to sell OTR tyres to domestic and International customers. However, with news of an RFID agreement between Mesnac and Pneu-Logic, a host of companies new to Tyres & Accessories and well-known exhibitors like Shandong Linglong, there are sure to be some interesting developments during the course of the shows.

According to the exhibition’s organisers, RTF has attracted more than 200 foreign purchasers from 30 countries, with predictions for the total number visitors rising to 12,000.
