At interpneu we have been looking after our customers for more than 40 years and know the needs and requirements of fleets of commercial vehicles. We have made intensive use of this knowledge in the past two years in our collaboration arrangements with the 11th-biggest tyre manufacturer in the world, the Zhongce Rubber Group from the PRC,with the aim of producing and marketing robust tyres for the European market in the middle quality segment. The result of this collaboration is our newly developed Westlake family of tyres for trucks.
Why you should decide for Westlake tyres

The new EU tyre label helps consumers to decide in favour of a higher fuel efficiency class for their tyres. This can contribute to large reductions in running costs and emissions. Enhanced wet grip means greater road safety, and details of external rolling noise contributes to a reduction in traffic noise levels.
The actual fuel savings and road safety depend heavily on the behaviour of drivers, and in particular on the following:
Less rolling noise saves fuel and cuts CO2. This property is assigned to classes A to E.
Wet grip is assigned to classes A to E. Wet grip is crucial to safe driving. For instance, the difference between class A and class E braking distances is 18 m.
The label presents the volume in dB and the class A (quieter), B, or C (louder). The noise emitted by tyres affects the total noise levels emitted by the vehicle.
The snowflake symbol confirms that the snow tested tyre keeps within the 3PMSF limits (type approval).
