Trelleborg invests in increased capacity in Sri Lanka, transfers production from North America
Trelleborg is consolidating its industrial tire production to Sri Lanka and will invest in increased production capacity at one of Trelleborg Wheel Systems’ plants in Sri Lanka. As a consequence of this, it is announced that the production of industrial tires will be terminated and relocated from Trelleborg Wheel Systems’ plant in Hartville, Ohio, in the US. The cost of closure, production transfer and investments will total approximately SEK 130 M over a three-year period.“By doing this, we are creating the conditions for a strong global production structure in Wheel Systems,” says
