Wigan, was acquired by Ocean Transport and Trading Ltd in July of this year, is making a bid to improve its position in the commercial vehicle field.
Following 18 months testing, involving thousands of tyres, the company has decided to introduce a range of four retread tyres for the commercial van market.
Some patterns are available in micro-sipe form providing small lateral slits said to improve traction and reduce heat build up.
