MAXAM is proud that both the AgriXtra XL and AgriXtra XL VF have been awarded the DLG Approved quality seal by the Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft (DLG; German Agricultural Society). The global manufacturer of agricultural and specialty tyres officially received the certificates at this year’s Agritechnica from DLG Vice President Prof. Till Meinel and Martin Hanstein, Head of Vehicle Technology and Performance Testing at DLG TestService GmbH.
The award of the DLG seal of approval underscores the outstanding qualities of MAXAM’s innovative radial agricultural tyres. They are the result of sustainability-oriented product development and a combination of technological advantages. The DLG award confirms MAXAM’s intentions and technological developments, which aim to offer not only optimised product performance through reduced soil compaction, improved traction, and greater fuel savings, but also higher added value for farmers and agricultural businesses.
Last year, the tyres were tested by the DLG Test Center for Technology and Operating Supplies, an independent German testing institute, in the field, on the road, and in laboratory tests on a dynamometer. Both the MAXAM AgriXtra XL VF and the standard tyres in sizes 600/70R30 (front axle) and 710/70R42 (rear axle) achieved very good results compared to reference products. The test results underscore that MAXAM delivers high performance in the categories of “resource conservation” (VF product, soil compaction), “fuel economy” (improved productivity) and “traction” (reduced slip rates).
“We are delighted that the independent experts and testers at DLG have confirmed the premium quality and performance of our tyres. As an integral part of our expansion strategy, we are striving for further growth in our agricultural tyre business. Our MAXAM AgriXtra XL products in VF and standard carcass construction are excellent examples of how our technology and engineering can help farmers achieve greater value by efficiently reducing their fuel costs, increasing productivity, and reducing soil compaction (VF) -we call that smart performance,” emphasises Harry Wang, General Manager MAXAM Europe.
