# Kal Tire: OTR Tyre Management & Retreading Specialist

Kal Tire is the UK's largest independent off-the-road (OTR) tyre dealer, serving quarries, waste contractors and ports with comprehensive tyre management solutions. With over eight UK branches and operations in West Africa, the company combines decades of expertise with innovative sustainability practices.

The business specialises in managing the tyre lifecycle for heavy industries where downtime is costly and safety is paramount. Beyond supplying new OTR tyres from leading manufacturers including Bridgestone, Michelin and Maxam, Kal Tire offers proactive tyre maintenance, technical assessments and their proprietary Tyre Operations Management System (TOMS) to optimise fleet performance.

What sets Kal Tire apart is their commitment to circular economy solutions. Their retreading service extends tyre life whilst keeping units out of landfills—a critical offering for environmentally conscious operators. The newly launched Maple Program uses third-party verified carbon calculation to quantify fuel and emissions savings from retreading, allowing customers to demonstrate environmental achievements with credible data.

The company also leads in innovative recycling through thermal conversion technology that returns resources to mines, directly addressing industry sustainability targets. Their Ultra Repair and Ultra Tread services provide specialised solutions for damaged tyres, maximising asset value.

With highly skilled teams across both regions and a world-class retreading facility in Ghana, Kal Tire positions itself as a strategic partner that balances operational efficiency, safety and environmental responsibility.
