Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd.‘s Alliance Tire Group (ATG), its off-highway tire manufacturing and sales subsidiary, won an Agritechnica Innovation Award Silver Medal for its Alliance 398 MPT agricultural tire.
The Agritechnica Innovation Award has been presented to products recognized for superior innovations during pre-screening of products to be exhibited at Agritechnica 2019, to be held this Nov. 10-16 in Hanover, Germany. This year, one innovation was awarded a gold medal and 39 innovations received a silver medal.
The silver medal-winning Alliance 398 MPT tire is compatible for use with a central tire inflation system that automatically adjusts tire pressure to the level suitable for driving in the field or on a paved road. In addition, the tires’ all-steel radial flotation construction enables the Alliance 398 MPT to deliver excellent performance on and off the road, with good traction, high load capacity, and soil protection when used on the farm and stable handling and a quiet and comfortable ride at high speeds when used on paved roads, the company says.
