Saspol Technology, based in Vigevano, Italy, has signed an agreement with Central Marketing Inc. that will see the Colonial Heights, Va.-based company distributing and promoting Saspol’s line of industrial presses for retreading.

Saspol started in 1961 with standard presses for rubber, and now offers the tire industry complete systems, including press lines for pre-cured tread, mono/multiple daylight presses for solid tires, solid tire assembly lines and more. Saspol said its customers include Bridgestone, Michelin, Nokian, Pirelli and BKT, but that its products also suit the production of rubber technical goods, polyurethane, automotive Interiors, brakes, clutch pads and wood.
 
Central Marketing, which has supplied the tire and retread industry for some 20 years, will provide North American customers with machines, as well as local service.
