Tiretyte Tire Sealant Saves Albanese Concrete Construction Over $170,000 by Reducing their Flat Tires from 720 to Only 40
Tiretyte tire sealant reduced the flat tires due to tread area punctures from 720 to only 40, for a large concrete company is San Jose, California. Tiretyte also increased the fleets the tire life and fuel economy by maintaining tire air pressure.
(PRWEB) May 21, 2005 -- "Tiretyte tire sealant has saved Albanese Concrete
Construction over $170,000 so far by reducing their flat tires from about 720 to
only 40 over the past 18 months."
"We started using Tiretyte at Albanese
Concrete nearly two years ago. On average, we were experiencing about 40 flat
tires per month on our Caterpillar back-hoe tractors, Case and Volvo loaders,
CAT fork lifts, etc. The average flat tire service call and repair often took
two to three hours or longer, at a cost of hundreds and sometimes thousands of
dollars. And the additional downtime expenses were eating away at our profits.
So we decided to give Tiretyte a try." Neil Kropelnicki, Fleet Mgr. of Albanese
Concrete Co.in San Jose, CA, said.
"Initially, we tested Tiretyte on two
heavy duty off road fork lift trucks, which went down weekly due to flat tires.
During the first three months, Tiretyte reduced our forklift flat repairs to
only two, from the 24 to 30 repairs we would have had over the same three
months. We were so amazed at those results, we decided to install Tiretyte into
our entire fleet of Caterpillar backhoe tractors, large Volvo loaders and other
equipment. Once again, the results were more than amazing. Over the next 18
months, Tiretyte reduced our flat repairs to about 40, from what would have been
approximately 720 flat repairs over the same period of time. And most of the 40
flats we did get were as a result of damage, which was beyond acceptable tire
repair standards. Our tire repair service company even asked us who we had
switched our business to, and they also were very impressed with the results."
Kropelnicki said.
"Tiretyte has sealed over 95% of the tread area
punctures and damage caused by objects ranging in size from 3/16" to 1/2" inch
in diameter. Not only has Tiretyte reduced the majority of our flats and costly
downtime, but it has also proven to increase the life of our Michelin, Goodyear,
General and Firestone tires by maintaining our fleet's tire air pressure.
Gasoline and fuel costs have also shot through the roof, so making sure our tire
air pressures are correct is now a must. Prior to using Tiretyte, we were
spending a tremendous amount of time constantly checking and adjusting our
fleet's tire pressure. Because of Tiretyte, we have been able to redirect those
expensive labor hours to other maintenance requirements." Kropelnicki
said.
Kropelnicki adds, "We are happy to report our constant headaches
from costly flat tires and downtime are a thing of the past. I wish we had
started using Tiretyte twenty years ago because it would have already saved us
millions of dollars. Tiretyte is the most amazing product I have seen during my
past thirty years of fleet maintenance experience."
