Focus on global rubber & tyre production

(1 October 2007)

Following its acquisition earlier this summer of the control and conveying/dosing activities of UK-based Chronos Richardson, Zeppelin Silos & Systems of Friedrichshafen, Germany, has set up Zeppelin Systems Ltd in Nottingham, UK. Benefiting from more than 20 years expertise acquired by the British company (which was recently purchased by Premier Tech of Canada) in the field of weighing, dosing and blending raw materials employed in rubber compounding plants, the new Zeppelin subsidiary now aims to become a worldwide centre of competence for tyre and rubber industries. www.zeppelin-industry.com
