Petlas Tire Corporation has launched the UN-4, a new agricultural tyre aimed at small trailers, baling machines, and soil tillage equipment. Designed to balance cost-effectiveness, durability, and soil care, the UN-4 arrives as a practical solution for farming operations focused on efficiency and land preservation.
With its wide footprint and optimised void ratio, the UN-4 minimises soil compaction — a critical factor for maintaining field health and boosting long-term productivity. This design helps reduce surface pressure, offering a more soil-friendly option compared to conventional tyres.
The UN-4's reinforced textile structure is engineered for extended service life, delivering durability across a range of terrains. Petlas positions the tyre as a cost-effective choice suitable for versatile agricultural use.
As pressures increase on farming businesses to manage operating costs while improving sustainability, products like the UN-4 offer a solution aimed at balancing both needs. By supporting better soil management and longer tyre life, Petlas aims to position the UN-4 within the practical needs of small-to-medium scale farming operations.
Tyre design for agricultural use is increasingly focused on soil protection as farmers seek ways to preserve land quality alongside operational efficiency. The Petlas UN-4 reflects this trend, showing how manufacturers are adapting tread design and construction materials to support sustainable farming practices. As demand grows for tyres that offer both durability and reduced environmental impact, developments in this area are likely to expand across both OEM and aftermarket agricultural sectors.
