ContiLifeCycle Network Adds Piedmont Truck Tires
Piedmont Truck Tires, one of the South’s largest commercial tire dealerships, has entered into a licensing agreement with Continental Tire the Americas, LLC to join the ContiLifeCycle™ dealer network.
As a ContiLifeCycle dealer, Piedmont Truck Tires will be supplied with flat, precured ContiTread™ products, which will allow the commercial tire dealer to produce retreads featuring the same pattern designs, rubber compounding and tread technology that are included in new Continental brand truck tires.
The affiliation between the two companies began in late 2010 when Piedmont Truck Tires started selling new Continental truck tires.
Dealer partners in the ContiLifeCycle network service both national and regional fleet customers who want to extend the performance of their Continental truck tires.
In July 2014, Piedmont Truck Tires began retreading truck tires using Continental’s ContiLifeCycle retreading processes at its 155,000-square-foot facility in Graham, N.C..
It also became the first retreader to use Continental’s proprietary new manufacturing control software, CLC Soft, a unique solution that provides an interface to manage the entire retread process, from tire collection to data delivery to the retreader’s enterprise resource planning systems.
