Trelleborg presented national agricultural tyre Visãoagro award in Brazil

Following its award for ‘Best Agricultural Tire’ in the south-eastern region of Brazil for the third consecutive year at the VisãoAgro Awards, the performance of Trelleborg’s agricultural tyres in the sugar cane industry has also been recognised for the first time nationally.

The VisãoAgro Awards recognise and honour mills, distilleries and product manufacturers who have excelled in the areas of processing and production in the sugar cane industry. Companies are selected following research conducted by AR Enterprises, GEGIS and the Journal of Vision Agribusiness.

José Oliveira, managing director at Trelleborg Wheel Systems in Brasil, commented: “After being recognised so enthusiastically for three years running by VisãoAgro for our efforts in the south-eastern region of Brazil, to receive a national accolade is a phenomenal feat. The award is testament to the years of experience and research we have invested in sugar cane fields to ensure that we are continually enhancing our comprehensive offering for the sugar cane industry.”

The 2016 VisãoAgro Awards ceremony, which was attended by more than 300 representatives of some of the largest companies and plants in the sugarcane industry, was held in Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo on 29 November.
