    Maxam, part of the Sailun Group, used Lamma 2024 as a launch pad for its tyre portfolio, which will now be offered through wholesale distributor Kirkby Tyres.

    “The new year brings with it a whole new range of opportunities to showcase our essential solutions and technologies for tractors, harvesters and seed drills to the general public, dealers and international customers. Our commitment in Birmingham was to show visitors, the industry and professionals that Maxam tyres are leading the way in terms of quality, performance and efficiency for the growing demands in agriculture,” said Jeff Hughes, sales director of Maxam Europe.

    “With our latest Maxam tyre range, we underline our ambitions for a more efficient and productive future of agriculture, based on long-term research, expertise and the ingenuity of our engineers.”

    Following the announcement of the partnership, visitors to the Kirkby Tyres stand were able to see key new additions to the Maxam range.

    Maxam FlotXtra

    All-steel radial flotation equipment tyre for agricultural tankers and trailers. The belt-stabilised tread offers a long service life, high stability and high resistance to punctures and hazards in the field. The optimised non-directional block tread pattern provides excellent traction in the field while minimising vibrations at driving speeds.

    Maxam AgriXtra XL

    Large volume R1W tyres for high performance tractor applications. The high-quality 45° lug pattern provides excellent traction and minimises vibrations when driving. The low pressure and wide footprint reduce soil compaction.

    Maxam AgriXtra N

    Narrow tyres for tractors and sprayers that are exposed to high loads during operation. The high-quality 45° lug pattern provides excellent traction and minimises vibrations when driving. The low pressure and wide footprint also reduce soil compaction.

    Maxam AgilXtra

    A radial flotation tyre for agricultural tankers and trailers is ideal for mixed applications. The belt-stabilised tread offers a long service life, high stability and high resistance to punctures and hazards in the field. The optimised tread design provides excellent traction in the field and minimises vibration at all speeds. The steel belt construction offers high puncture resistance and the self-cleaning tread pattern improves traction.
