retired and will dedicate his time to his private life and his favourite hobby, golf, following 30 years working in the field. Mr Lauridsen started his career in the early eighties as sales manager for Marangoni Retreading Systems’ Scandinavian distributor, however it was not until 1991 that he joined the Italian retreader service team, as Area Sales Manager for Sweden, Denmark and Norway, when Marangoni decided to begin operating directly on the Scandinavian markets.
Over this long period working for the company, Mr Lauridsen has always stood out for his professionalism, which
combined with an exceptional knowledge of the retreading market, has earned him recognition and a reputation for reliability.
His outstanding capabilities have allowed him to achieve important milestones, such as initiating the decades’ long partnership with Dackia AB: not just one of the main multibrand tyre chains in Sweden, but also operators of a retreading plant using state-of- the-art Marangoni technology. Marangoni Retreading Systems would like to thank Mr Lauridsen for his service and commitment spanning many years.
Vipal partners will have VIP access to five races at the European Truck Racing competition this year.
Events that help people relax and help strengthen relationships with clients and partners. Vipal, the leading retreading company in Latin America and one of the most important manufacturers of tyre retreading products in the world, invests in these types of activities. This is why the company is taking some of its clients to five European Truck Races. This initiative began in July, with editions in Spielberg, Austria and Nürburg, Germany.
Vipal has had a strong relationship with European Truck Racing since 2011, the year it began its partnership with Buggyra. Two of the official pilots on the Czech team, David Vršecký and Adam Lacko, are sponsored by Vipal for the 2014 and 2015 season.
At the competition in Austria, Vršecký came in first place in one of the races on Saturday, guaranteeing the team's fourth victory in the season. Vipal clients in Slovenia and Croatia were able to enjoy the event, which ended with a Buggyra team victor y.
On the German circuit, with an audience of over 170,000 spectators, there were clients from Turkey, Azerbaijan, Georgia, the Czech Republic and Hungary. Buggyra won as a team at that event as well. Vipal guests emphasised the great environment and the importance of opportunities like this one, where they can talk about the market in a relaxed situation.
