Vipal Rubber took part in Transport Show Truck & Bus Brno 2026, held on 12 and 13 June at the Brno Exhibition Centre (BVV) in the Czech Republic. Together with its partner Czech Style, the company showcased tyre retreading solutions for urban, regional and long-haul transport operations, reinforcing its commitment to the development of the Czech market and the EMEA region. Represented by Michal Baxa from Vipal EMEA’s Commercial Department, the company sought to strengthen relationships with transport operators, fleet managers, purchasing professionals and other stakeholders in the truck and bus sector.
The initiative further consolidates a partnership of more than 15 years between Vipal and Czech Style, a Czech importer with extensive expertise in the tyre retreading market. This collaboration has delivered tangible results for transport operators seeking greater cost-effectiveness without compromising on safety, performance or compliance with the technical standards required for their operations.
“Our presence in the EMEA region has been built on strong, long-term partnerships. Czech Style is an example of this strategy, which combines technology, technical support and close customer relationships to drive the development of tyre retreading in the Czech Republic. We will continue investing in supporting our local customers and further strengthening Vipal’s presence in this market,” says Fabrício Nedeff, Commercial Manager for Vipal EMEA.
“Transport Show Brno was an excellent opportunity to demonstrate how the partnership between Czech Style and Vipal creates value for fleets. For more than 15 years, we have worked together to provide reliable, efficient solutions tailored to the needs of the market,” says Petr Hink, Managing Director of Czech Style.
The combination of high-quality tyre casings with Vipal retreading materials demonstrates the potential to extend tyre service life, making it possible, in some cases, to carry out a second retread on bus tyres, such as size 275/70R22.5. Under ideal vehicle maintenance and tyre care conditions, a third retread may also be achieved.
Among the solutions showcased were Vipal retreading materials designed for different operating conditions. These included the VDA4 for regional applications, the VZU3 for urban operations, and the VT110 tread pattern for international transport. These technologies demonstrate the company’s ability to deliver solutions that meet the real needs of fleet operators, contributing to greater efficiency, enhanced safety and a lower cost per kilometre.
