Trelleborg and AGCO renew agreement

Trelleborg and AGCO Corporation have renewed their long-term agricultural tyre development cooperation agreement.

"Following the recognition of Trelleborg as the best EAME (Europe, Africa and Middle East) Supplier in September 2012, this new agreement with AGCO is an important confirmation of our solid business relationship. It provides a firm foundation for the accomplishment of our ambitious future mutual goals,” says Stefano Bettinelli, OE Director at Trelleborg’s Agricultural and Forestry Tyres division.

In June 2011, Trelleborg invested in a new factory in China. Shorty after, Trelleborg was approved by AGCO Corporation as a major tyre supplier for the tractors produced in its Changhzou plant.

Commencing in 2000, the collaboration between Trelleborg and AGCO has been consolidated over the years. This has been possible thanks to successful projects and initiatives between the two Companies and to the progressive affirmation of both brands in the market.

Bertrand Blampey, Global Commodity Manager, Axles & Tyres at AGCO, stated: “This new agreement perfectly matches AGCO’s strategy focusing on quality, sustainability, innovation and customer satisfaction.”
