BKT, Elgi Rubber and Omni United Commit to Inaugural Tyrexpo India 2011

The first major exhibitors at the first Tyrexpo India in Chennai on 5-7 July 2011 have been announced. Exhibition organiser ECI International states that Balkrishna Tyres (BKT), Elgi Rubber and Omni United have become the first major companies to commit to supporting the inaugural staging of the new tyre and equipment exhibition. ECI says the ground-breaking event reflects India’s fast-growing importance and influence in the global tyre, rubber and equipment market.

Paul Farrant, managing director of ECI International, says: “We welcome BKT, Elgi and Omni as the first major exhibitors at this brand new exhibition. Each of these companies have supported our other international exhibitions and we are naturally delighted that they have now thrown their weight behind this new show held in India.

“We are talking to many other Indian and international suppliers in the tyre, rubber, retreading, equipment and accessories markets about the show and have been very pleased at the high level of interest shown and bookings to date,” he added.

ECI is the company behind international tyre and equipment events in Singapore, Johannesburg and Manchester, UK. “We know there is enormous interest in doing business in India and we hope that Tyrexpo India will become the focal point for a truly international trade exhibition. Our events are structured to bring together suppliers, distributors and buyers in a professional atmosphere where they can talk and conduct business,” confirms Farrant. 

Tyrexpo India will take place at the Chennai Trade Centre on the 5, 6 and 7 July 2011 (the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of the week). The venue is one of the country’s most prestigious exhibition centres, playing host to a series of major events including the International Rubber Expo, Indian Industry Expo and Print Expo.
