THE POWER OF AVIATION TYRES TO YOUR GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENTS

Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSEs) require the best category of tyres, particularly when they happen to be Solid Tyres. 

Solid Tyre industry across the globe thrive by adopting low cost raw materials, because the European Tyre & Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO) and equivalent standards give wide flexibility in terms of the solid tyre's dimensions and load carrying capacity. 

However what normally tends to be overlooked is the Speed rating for these tyres. But as long as these tyres are used in slow moving forklifts and industrial equipments, the tyres work fine. 

The problem comes only when these tyres are used in demanding situtions such as in Ground Handling & Support in Airports.

With an extreme fluctuation in Climatic conditions (upto 110 degrees farenheit in the day and sub-zero temperatures in night), GSE equipments face the wrath of the nature, head-on: the tyres take all the toll. 

Further, as Airport Contractors are paid for by the speed of their execution, the tyres are challenged to the maximum! All the low cost tyres tend to fail on these intensive (high speed upto 25 to 30 Kmph) and 24x7 applications. We at Royal Tyres have carefully studied all these challenges for more than 20+ yrs.  And we have catered regularly to requirements of GSE Tyres by Air India and Singapore Airport Terminal Services (SATS) and Bahrain Airports.

We have engineered special technology compounds that weather the wrath of airport use, misuse and abuse. 'Royal' solid tyres incorporate the same Polyamide Short fiber reinforcement technology that goes into aviation tyres to withstand high heat build-up and superior abrasion even on extremely hot environments. 

Given this dramatic turnoaround technology, your Baggage Tractors and Trolleys run on 24x7 applications like sprinters! Come talk to us and see that your operational downtimes are dramatically reduced and efficiency peaking to newer heights! Email us for more info: exports@royaltyres.com.
