The BKT Flotation range responds to the needs dictated by Agriculture 4.0 and to the new challenges in production and sustainability. “Thanks to the flotation properties of these products, soil compaction is reduced – explains Denis Piccolo, Product Manager at BKT – which means: less alteration of its structure. This ensures a better exchange of nutritional components in the soil, better aeration capacity and water drainage. All this translates into greater productivity. Another key feature of these tires is their versatility, which allows users to move smoothly over long distances and on different terrains, thus facilitating their work.”
Thanks to their footprint and excellent traction, BKT Flotation tires allow significant fuel savings, improving cost efficiency.
