Kraiburg: Minor fire may delay some product deliveries

Kraiburg Austria shares that a technical fault caused a fire within the vulcanisation department of its plant in Geretsberg last night, but damage was minor. The retreading materials specialist says the rapid intervention of staff and the fire service limited damage to the immediate area where the fire broke out. Kraiburg stresses that nobody was injured, nor were neighbours or the environment endangered at any point.

One of two presses used to produce pre-vulcanised treads has been affected by the fire, and Kraiburg reports that this may lead to delivery delays for some products. The company will inform its customers should delivery dates change. It stresses that this issue only affects its vulcanised tread range, and the production and delivery of all other products will continue as planned and without restrictions.
