Retreading Business to Launch Spanish/Portuguese Digital Magazine
buffing systems with interchangeable blades replaced the extremely inefficient tack type rasp system familiar at the
time. With the introduction of the modern jet blades in 1956, the tyre retreading industry was very happy with an innovation, which was established as a world- wide standard. It is still valid to date, and has in fact been copied several times. Since stagnation is considered a step backwards, B&J continued with research and development in the following decades.
Quality and profitability have always been the number one priority with emphasis on the ongoing dialogue with customers worldwide. "Only when we listen carefully to our users, do we know what they want and need. They are the experts in tyre retreading, for whom we further develop our product range as required," explains Andreas Müller, President of B&J Rocket. Today, the US / Swiss company has a wide range of highly efficient tools for the tyre retreading and conveyor belt industry. Increasingly, additional markets are opening in the construction and wood industry,
in prosthesis manufacturing as well as many other areas. Buffing systems, grinding tools, machines, or other special accessories - everything comes from a single source with the highest quality customers are now accustomed to: B&J Rocket has made its mark.
Communication with the target groups must also be right. In recent years, B&J has therefore invested significantly and today offers a distinctive, modern Internet presence as well as a complete catalogue, which now has become a standard reference in the industry. With the help of its customers and their requirements, B&J Rocket says it will continue its research and development to further improve already exceptional products for the future. The new EVO blades are a suitable example.
"We will always focus on customer-oriented service and the highest standards of quality to achieve maximum customer satisfaction," says Müller, letting on at the same time that B&J Rocket will thank its customers for the long-standing loyalty with various promotions during this anniversary year.
Retreading Business is proud to announce that it is to launch a new digital version of Retreading Business aimed at the Latin American retreading market. The first issue will be launched in Mid-March 2017 and will be available free of charge via the
format. Readers wishing to access the magazine will be able to do so free of charge. All readers registering on the site will also receive a reminder in their own language when the new issue of the magazine is available.
The Latin American version of Retreading Business will be published quarterly and will contain many of the same articles as in the English language magazine. There will, however, be an increased emphasis on stories from Latin America including some stories unique to the new regional version of the magazine. David Wilson, Publisher of Retreading Business commented; “Retreading Business has always had a strong readership in Latin America, which is one of the world’s most important retread markets. However, we have felt for some time that we need to improve our service to the region by publishing a magazine in Spanish and Portuguese that provides an effective back-up to our well-known English language publication.
“we will be alerting retreaders throughout Latin America by e- mail about the existence of the new Latin American version of the magazine in advance of the launch of the new title.”
