Retreads can be used on all truck tyre positions, subject to local legislation.

Retreads account for around 1 out 4 of all replacement tyres in European truck tyre market.

Most tyre injuries can be repaired. Bandag dealers put each casing through a rigorous testing and repair process to ensure that the casings satisfy our top-quality standards for retreading. Every Bandag dealer is trained, qualified and certified by Bandag to do this.

What makes us a leader are our 60 years of experience in developing and producing high quality tread products and retreading equipment and refining our proprietary retreading process. We are also the highest selling retread solution provider in the world. While we are retreaders at heart, we also leverage the knowledge and innovation of the world's largest tyre and rubber company - Bridgestone. Our dealer network is an integral part of our retread solution and one of the most important factors - with more than 100 locations in Europe.
