To Goodyear, one of the largest tire manufacturers in the world and one of the leading companies in aviation, presents technology and innovation through its products at the 17th edition of the Labace Latin American Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition 2022 (LABACE), the main aviation sector fair in Latin America which takes place between the 9th and 11th of August at Congonhas Airport in São Paulo (SP).
Among Goodyear's highlights at the event is the Flight Eagle, a tire that has a more resistant carcass and that has specially designed grooves in its tread to promote less wear and tear and at the same time be efficient on wet floors.
Another feature of this compound is its excellent resistance to the effects of sunlight and ozone. The model shown at the event is already homologated to be used in Embrarer aircraft such as the Legacy, Praetor and Phenom
“Goodyear has always been at the forefront of aviation, with more than 110 years of history. Today, the brand is in evidence in commercial airlines and aviation in general, in addition to executive jets, offering superior performance and helping our customers to reduce operating costs with safety and superior performance, regardless of the applications”, adds Fernando Miranda, Goodyear's Aviation Latin America manager, emphasizing that the quality of Goodyear products is pointed out as the main reason why the brand is the number one choice for pilots, mechanics and operators, offering an incomparable level of innovation and excellence.
In the world, Goodyear has two facilities for the manufacture of new tires for aircraft (Danville, United States and Bangkok, Thailand) and five operations for retreading, two in the USA, one in Thailand, one in the Netherlands and another in Brazil.
“Our Brazilian unit is the only one approved by Anac (National Civil Aviation Agency) to retread tires for aeronautical use. We serve all of Latin America”, concludes the executive.
