Nokian presents concept tyre for agricultural diversification

A concept displayed by Nokian Heavy Tyres at Agritechnica suggests what form tomorrow’s tractor tyre may take. With this tyre, known simply as the Concept Tyre, Nokian has aimed to address declining of specialisation amongst small scale-farmers and a growing tendency to diversify activities, such as farmers who earn a portion of their income through carrying out contracting services.

“This has shaped and will continue to shape the demand for new kind of equipment, including durable, multi-use tyres which enable a more versatile and cost-effective tractor application than ever before,” comments Nokian Heavy Tyres. The manufacturer explains that the Concept Tyre on display at Agritechnica has been “especially designed to enable versatile, cost-effective work.” In addition to offering reliability and long service life, its “visionary tread pattern makes all-round mobility and heavier loads possible.”
