Marangoni earns SmartWay approval

Two Ringtread Energeco tires from Marangoni Tread North America have been SmartWay verified.

Two Ringtread Energeco tires from Marangoni Tread North America have been SmartWay verified. The tires for use in linehaul applications and now available from independent retreaders throughout North America, include:

•    ENERGECO RTA-E for trailer positions with a tread depth of 12/32 inches
•    ENERGECO RDA-E for drive positions with a tread depth of 25/32 inches

“Marangoni is committed to supporting the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency SmartWay program to promote fuel efficiency and will continue to submit treads for approval,” states Giampaolo Brioschi, MTNA product marketing manager.

The Marangoni Energeco product line, part of Marangoni’s Performance Specific Ringtread line, uses the company’s splice-less, precure Ringtread technology along with compounding and tread design engineering to lower rolling resistance and improve tread life and reliability, the manufacturer says.
