TBBtires Makes Inroads into Malaysia
TBBtires brand truck tyres have made aggressive inroads into Malaysia through its authorised distributor, TBB Trading (M) Sdn Bhd.
The TBBtires brand is produced and developed by Jiangsu General Science Technology Co., Ltd, which is a subsidiary of the well-known Hong Dou Group. The company has a modern factory that specialises in manufacturing all-steel radial truck tyres, cross-ply passenger car tyres, cross-ply OTR tyres, motorcy- cle tyres and inner tubes. At present, its annual capacity of all-steel radial truck tyres has reached 4 million units and it is estimated to reach 6 million in 2016.
After 12 years in operation, Jiangsu General Science Technology has become one of the top tyre manufacturers in China and is renowned for producing high quality products. In 2013, the company ranked 35th in the World’s Top 75 Tyre Manufacturers.
According to TBB Trading, Jiangsu General Science Technology has a wide range of all-steel radial truck tyres that includes more than 100 models of mid-long haul truck tyres, short and mid-distance heavy duty truck tyres as well as short and mid-distance mining tyres that cater to different market needs and requirements.
Jiangsu General Science Technology has built strategic partnerships with many established international companies such as Bekaert, Cabot and Exx- onMobil to ensure the quality of its raw materials. In addition to the local talent pool, the company has employed many engineers from Bridgestone, Michelin and Pirelli to enhance the company’s strength in product design, construction, and R&D. Today, it has a team of 300 technical personnel, a well-equipped tyre technical and product R&D centre, as well as an advanced lab is that recognised by the Chinese government.
To maintain its leading position in the market, the company believes that it is important to have its own R&D centre. It follows strict quality control manage- ment that is based on international standards and implemented by the major players, in striving to provide the best quality products.
TBB Trading claims that the main strength of TBBtires products is their high durability and wear resistance. Currently, the tubeless tyres produced by Ji- angsu General Science Technology are able to provide higher mileage and loading as compared to the majority of the Chinese brands, thanks to its im- proved tubeless tyre technology. These tyres feature stronger casings, which mean they are able to provide more retreads.
