Global sales of the Alliance Agri Star II tire have surpassed one million units in just five years—proof of a product quality recognized at an international level
Launched at the end of 2019, the Alliance “Agri Star II” tire can truly be said to have conquered every market in which it has been introduced, achieving commercial success with few precedents in its specific sector. A clear confirmation came in recent months, when the Indian Alliance factories rolled out the one-millionth “Agri Star II,” a milestone that marks an especially significant production volume in light of the highly competitive agricultural tire market.
Two key factors underpin this global success, the first being the participatory development process at the heart of the product. Before moving into design, Alliance systematically and broadly gathered input from farmers and distributors, later turning their needs into technical specifications and performance targets. The result is an exceptionally versatile tire, capable of maximizing machine performance both in the field and on the road. This is also thanks to its unique construction technologies, particularly the “Stratified Layer Technology” (SLT) system.
This system creates lugs made of two overlapping rubber layers, each with its own specific angle. The first layer, with a multi-angle profile, ensures grip and stability when the tire is new, while the second layer comes into play when the tread wears down by 40 percent, helping to maintain traction and handling even under such conditions. The outcome is a longer product lifespan, which translates into a return on investment spread over more working hours. Additional advantages include a wide range of available sizes, the option of choosing low sidewalls (from 65 to 95 percent), adaptability to all modern tractors while maintaining full compatibility with standard rims, and support for speeds of up to 65 km/h.
Box – The Winning Strengths of “Agri Star II”
- Long-lasting traction ensured by lug geometry that maximizes the contact surface even with advanced wear.
- Good on-road comfort and excellent road holding thanks to overlapping central lugs.
- High levels of self-cleaning achieved by double-step tie-bars acting as mud breakers.
- Reduced soil compaction compared to the category average.
- High resistance to cuts, punctures, and wear, thanks to a polyester carcass, a specially developed compound, and stubble-resistant profiles.
