As reliable as your best employee.
Just as every successful business aims to build long-lasting relationships, our goal is to be by your side for as long as possible. That’s why we’ve developed the VanContact™ Ultra – a tyre you will most likely spend a long time with. Thicker rubber blocks and a scuff rib extending around the whole side of the tyre stabilize the entire sidewall. These features ensure its high durability and reduce the likelihood of kerbstone damage. So, prepare yourself for not worrying about buying new tyres for a very, very, very long time.
Change your mind – not your tyres.
As we know that you most likely have other priorities than having to think about the tyres on your fleet vehicles, we came up with a brand new, ultra-durable compound concept tailor-made for the demands of vans. By using so-called functionalized polymers, we were able to achieve remarkable rolling resistance, high robustness and at the same time provide excellent wet grip – giving you the freedom to think about moving your business forward instead of changing the tyres of your fleet.
Manufacturer information
EU Tyre Label
The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
The following tyres are exempt from the regulation:
- Tyres designed to be fitted only to vehicles registered for the first time before 1 October 1990
- Remoulded tyres (until Regulation EU 2020/740 has been widened accordingly)
- Professional off-road tyres
