Hawkins to lead Titan Mining Services

Titan International has named Paul Hawkins the new head of its subsidiary Titan Mining Services. Hawkins, who previously served in OTR sales and production at Titan Tire Corporation, will report directly to Titan International CEO Maurice Taylor in his new role. “Paul understands the complete range of products and what needs to be done as Titan expands into this new venture,” commented Taylor upon announcing Hawkins’ appointment.

The US-based off-road tyre manufacturer plans to team with independent servicing dealers and offer the mining sector a higher level of engineering and technical knowledge than is currently available. “Titan believes that its competitors will be pleased that Titan will bring added professionalism to the service of all our competitors’ tyres, besides our own. Everyone knows you need the proper air pressure, temperature control, etc. to extend tyre life.

“Paul will be setting up Titan Mining Services around the world over the next few years,” Taylor added. “I look forward to working with Paul as we move forward.”
