Agritechnica launch for two new STARCO products

New Kenda Group company STARCO will introduce two new tyre and wheel solutions to the market at next month’s Agritechnica trade show. The first is described as a reinvention of the haytedder wheel, while the second is a flotation solution for agricultural equipment.

The STARCO HT Pro is a low profile 10-inch tubeless complete wheel solution for haytedders. While STARCO says it will only reveal “what makes STARCO HT Pro innovative and how it differs from traditional haytedder tyres” at its official launch at Agritechnica on 12 November, it shares that the product features “an innovative tyre pattern that allows for better performance, enhanced stability, easier maintenance and improved reliability in the field.”

“The launch of STARCO HT Pro breaks with the existing tyre traditions and is the first step in the journey towards a maintenance free wheel and tyre solution for haytedders designed and made by STARCO,” states Frédéric Ivancich, STARCO’s segment director for agricultural implement. “We want to articulate the major influence poor or perfect wheels have on; for instance, a haytedders performance and reliability.”

The second new product to be shown at Agritechnica is the STARCO HS Flotation. STARCO describes it as a “premium 17-inch tyre solution perfect for agricultural implements that works hard in the field and rolls fast on the road.” The wheel is STARCO engineered, developed and manufactured, and will be ready for the market when 2018 season starts. Once again, Ivancich is mum about the tyre’s full specifications: “Visitors will have to wait for more details until we meet at Agritechnica in November,” he states.
