Sailun Tire Americas is set to expand its operations with the construction of a new factory in Mexico, following a joint venture agreement with TD International Holding, S.A.P.I.DE C.V. This venture is part of Sailun’s strategy to increase production capacity and improve supply chain efficiency.
The planned Mexican factory will boost Sailun’s annual production by 6 million semi-steel radial tires, representing an investment of $240 million. Further plans include the potential addition of a facility capable of producing 1.65 million all-steel radial tires annually.
Peter Koszo, president of North America operations, highlighted the factory’s role in meeting growing demand and enhancing product development within the North American market. He emphasized the facility’s advanced technology and the skilled professionals who will uphold Sailun’s quality and innovation standards.
In line with its commitment to innovation, Sailun also introduced the Terramax RT tire, designed for both adventurers and everyday drivers. Available in 36 sizes for rim diameters ranging from 17 to 22 inches, the Terramax RT also offers flotation sizes for enhanced vehicle aesthetics and performance in various terrains.
