Bandag Raises US Tread Rubber Prices

Prices for tread rubber products charged by Bridgestone Bandag Tire Solutions (BBTS) to its franchised dealers in the US have increased by up to 5 per cent, effective May 5. “Unprecedented energy prices continue to impact our costs, particularly for raw materials and transportation,” said Saul Solomon, president of BBTS. No corresponding price increase took place in the Canadian market.
