Marangoni Retreading Systems Announces Price Increase

Marangoni Retreading Systems (Marangoni Tread SpA and Ellerbrock Reifenrunderneuerungs-Technologie GmbH) have announced a 4 – 5 per cent price increase on all pre-cure retreading brands and product lines. The increase will be applied from 3 July 2006 in European, East European and Mediterranean countries.

“Despite the further incessantly fast rise of the cost of raw materials Marangoni Retreading Systems is firmly committed not to come to any compromise that could negatively affect the superior quality of our products and the reliable service we offer to our retreaders partners,” said Marco Mandrioli, sales and marketing director of Marangoni Tread SpA and managing director of Ellerbrock GmbH. “We are also making important efforts in order not to transfer to our customers the entire amount of the cost increase of raw material and energy,” he added.

Marangoni Retreading Systems also announced that, hot-cure materials and rubber accessory prices will increase between 6 and 7 per cent effective 12 June 2006.
