Prague, Czech Republic - Mitas Tires is introducing Mitas-brand tyres in 13 sizes for use in row-crop agriculture.
Off-road tyre producer Mitas of the CGS Group announced that in 2011 the company will introduce to the worldwide markets a new Mitas-branded range of tyres for use in row-crop agriculture. The tyre line will extend and improve existing Continental-brand row-crop tyres, which Mitas has been producing under licence since 2004.
As of June 1, eight Mitas row-crop sizes are available for sale. By the end of 2011, Mitas will produce 13 row-crop tyre sizes including five new sizes: 270/95 R32, 300/95 R46, 320/85 R34, 320/90 R50 and 320/90 R54. Additional sizes are slated for early 2012.
“Mitas brings a quality product to the row-crop tyre market which is often neglected by major tyre brands,†said Andrew Mabin, Mitas marketing and sales director. “Under AC85 and AC90 names, Mitas will offer 13 tyre sizes to meet farmers' needs in row-crop agriculture.â€
Mitas, a subsidiary of CGS Tyres in Prague, Czech Republic, produces Mitas- and Cultor-brand ag and industrial tyres. The company is building a radial farm tyre plant in Charles City that's expected to be completed by early 2012.
