The company established its Brazil factory in 2001 in the state of Minas Gerais. The factory supplies Marangoni's RINGTREAD retreading system for truck and bus tyres to the Latin American market.

Marangoni says it arrived in Brasil with the mission to deliver to tyre retreaders and their customers a higher quality product for a country of continental dimensions and one the largest road networks in the world.

The manufacturer adds that it is continuing to invest in Brazil with new retreading products and technologies.

Giacomo Melotti, CEO of the Brazilian unit, commented on the anniversary: “It’s a date we celebrate by being on every road in the country, with products travelling countless kilometres to every corner of the continent. This is what drives us to keep developing solutions more and more complete and
sustainable."

In a message delivered to the Brazilian employees for the occasion, Marangoni Group chairman Vittorio Marangoni stated: “From the retreading of tyres in an abandoned bomb shelter after the Second World War, to a world technological leadership. This is, in short, the history of our group. Marangoni arrived in Brasil in 2001 and built from scratch a reality that has established itself and has been able to be appreciated. Now Marangoni Tread Latino America celebrates 20 years after its foundation and we wish it a long life full of success and satisfaction. I want to thank all those who believed in this and made this achievement possible.”
