Providing customers with the right products; be it seals, agricultural tires or fenders, is perhaps our greatest contribution to global sustainability. We assume responsibility for Trelleborg’s operations also; and their impact on people, communities, and the environment. In this issue of T-Time, we write about our grout seals for offshore wind farms. The seal is a small part of larger installations, yet essential for function and service life. Our Central Tire Inflation System (ctis+ Inside) enables tire pressure adjustments for agricultural machinery depending on load and ground conditions. Fully integrated in the rim, it boosts tractor efficiency, sustainability, reliability, and improves the driver experience.

Its innovative solutions accelerate performance for customers in a sustainable way. The Trelleborg Group has annual sales of about SEK 37 billion (EUR 3.46 billion, USD 3.87 billion) and operations in about 50 countries.
