CEAT Specialty Awarded Prestigious Health and Safety Management Award

CEAT Specialty’s Ambernath Plant, which produces Ag radial tires for North America and other worldwide markets, has won a prestigious Sword of Honour from the British Safety Council.

The company, a division of CEAT Tires dedicated to producing Off-Highway (OHT) tires, with its dedicated Ambernath plant at the forefront of this manufacturing process, was one of 115 organizations worldwide that achieved a Sword of Honour, awarded to companies which have demonstrated excellence in the management of health and safety risks at work.

In doing so, CEAT became the first tire brand and one of only 33 companies globally to receive the prestigious award.

In order to compete for the Sword of Honour, an organization first had to achieve the maximum five stars in British Safety Council’s health and safety management audit scheme. The qualification period for this is between 1 August 2022 and 31 July 2023. The organisation has also demonstrated to an independent panel of experts that it has achieved excellence in its health and safety management throughout the business – from the shop floor to the boardroom.

For the first time this year, a new Shield of Honour Award was also introduced for organizations which can demonstrate excellence in well being management.

Peter McGettrick, Chairman of British Safety Council, said: “On behalf of the board of trustees and staff of the British Safety Council I would like to congratulate CEAT Specialty on achieving the highest standards of its health and safety management. These awards recognize the commitment, dedication and absolute professionalism undertaken. We are proud to support your organization in its achievement and delighted we can contribute to your ongoing success.”

Mike Robinson, Chief Executive of British Safety Council, added: “I would like to congratulate CEAT Specialty and its staff on this award, in tribute to their commitment to keeping their workplace safe and healthy.

“All of the Sword and Globe – and now Shield – award-winning organizations share a commitment and resolve to achieve the uppermost standards of health and safety – or now wellbeing. We thank CEAT Specialty for contributing to achieving our vision that no-one should be injured or made ill through their work.”

Amit Tolani, Chief Executive, CEAT Specialty added “We take pride in winning the prestigious Sword of Honour from British Safety Council, a testament to our steadfast dedication to safeguarding the health and well-being of our employees and stakeholders. We remain committed to enhancing our health and safety management systems, aiming to uphold our status as an exemplary organization.”

CEAT Ambernath Plant Receives Five-star Grading in British Safety Council Safety Audit

CEAT Ambernath Plant Receives Five-star Grading in British Safety Council Safety Audit

CEAT Specialty (division of CEAT Tires) is proud to announce that its Ambernath facility, which produces Ag radial tires for the North American market, has received a Five Star rating in the Occupational Health and Safety Audit conducted by the British Safety Council.

The company’s Ambernath plant underwent a comprehensive, quantified, and robust evaluation of its occupational health and safety policies, processes and practices. The audit process included documentation review, interviews with senior management, employees and other key stakeholders, together with samplings of operational activities.

Mike Robinson, CEO British Safety Council, said: “The award of a five-star grading following our occupational best practice Health and Safety Audit is an outstanding achievement and is reflective of a proactive organization which is committed to continual improvement in its health and safety arrangements and managing risks to workers’ health, safety and wellbeing.”

CEAT Specialty Chief Executive Amit Tolani added, “We are delighted to announce that we have been awarded a Five Star rating by the British Safety Council Occupational Health and Safety Audit. This accomplishment highlights our firm dedication to ensuring the safety and welfare of our employees and stakeholders. We aim at constant enhancement of our health and safety management systems to uphold our standing as a best practice organization.”

CEAT was established in 1924 in Turin, Italy. Today, it is one of India’s leading tire manufacturers, and CEAT tires are sold in more than 115 countries worldwide. The brand came to India in 1958, and later became part of the RPG Group. RPG is among the top business houses in India, with a group turnover of $3.6 billion.

In the specialty segment, CEAT manufactures farm, mining, and earthmover, industrial, and construction equipment tires, as well as special application off road tires. CEAT Specialty entered the North American market five years ago. The North American headquarters is located in Jefferson City, MO.

Feedback from North American tire dealers and farmers on CEAT Ag radial and bias-ply tires has been outstanding:

  • “If you have a good tire that performs well in the field and equally well on the road, you have a winner,” says longtime Ag tire industry veteran Barry Hawn who serves as Director of Off-Road Products for Tirecraft Ontario. “CEAT is that tire!”
  • “We have been very pleased with the CEAT tires”says Georgia peanut farmer Justin Studstill. “Our tractors spend a lot of time on the road, and the CEAT tires provide a smooth steady ride. They don’t get squirrelly like some tires do; very stable even when pulling heavy implements.”
  • Brent Sisson, Agricultural Tire Specialist for Tirecraft Sarnia in Ontario, Canada, says it takes him about four years to truly evaluate an Ag tire brand. He’s been selling CEAT farm tires for four years now and he is all in! “For myself, it’s about a 4-year process before I can feel confident in telling my customers I have confidence in a product,” Sisson notes. “I have to see it first-hand with known comparisons. CEAT is one brand that has surpassed my requirements. They provide a high quality, precision product. We have had lots of excellent customer feedback.”

CEAT gets ‘Lighthouse Certification’ from World Economic Forum for Halol plant

CEAT gets ‘Lighthouse Certification’ from World Economic Forum for Halol plant

Some insight was provided recently on why CEAT farm tires are being so well received by farmers and ranchers in North America.

CEAT Ltd’s Halol plant has been awarded the ‘Lighthouse Certification’ by the World Economic Forum. The certification is given to manufacturers that use fourth-industrial revolution technologies to transform factories, value chains, and business models for sustainability, empowering the workforce and increase in productivity.

CEAT Specialty Tires began selling Ag and OTR (off-the-road) tires in North America five years ago, and the feedback from farmers and tire dealers on CEAT quality has been outstanding. The prestigious certification from the World Economic Forum confirms the unflagging commitment to innovation and quality manufacturing at CEAT.

“We are the first tire company in the world to get the certification and this journey started 3-4 years back. To get certified one has to use fourth industrial revolution technology that includes advanced analytics, machine learning, and predictive analytics in their plant,” said Anant Goenka, Managing Director, CEAT Ltd.

The technologies are used to improve equality, efficiency, factory parameters, and productivity of the plant.

Anant Goenka- MD (second from right) and Jayasankar Kurrupal- SVP Manufacturing, receive the award for CEAT’s Halol plant at the Global Lighthouse Network at Davos from The World Economic Forum & McKinsey.

“Checks and audits are undertaken by the members of the World Economic Forum. The fourth industrial revolution came with digitization, using sensors in different parts of the machine that enables it to become the smart machine. It reduces the use of energy in the factor,” said Goenka.

Servicing OEM and international markets

With the use of the latest technology, CEAT is aiming to advance its OEM and international market.

“Important markets that we are looking into growing is the OEM market where the demand from automakers is present and second is the international market. Both sets are the customers that need high type specifications in terms of production of tires especially,” added Goenka.

CEAT Specialty Tires Joins National Cattlemen’s Beef Association

CEAT Specialty Tires Joins National Cattlemen’s Beef Association

CEAT Specialty Tires has become a corporate member of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) and looks forward to meeting many great folks who participate in the US beef industry.

The company, which produces and sells a wide range of Ag radial and bias tires, is making great inroads in North America since entering this market four years ago. While new to North America, CEAT is a 93-year-old company.

After advertising on the NCBA website this year and attending the recent national conference, CEAT is pleased to be expanding on its relationship with the NCBA, said Ryan Loethen, president of CEAT Specialty Tires Inc.

CEAT has expanded its radial and bias tire production to keep up with demand. Loethen said ranchers who may have purchased better known farm tire brands in the past are now giving CEAT a try due to product availability.

“Once ranchers experience CEAT quality, they want to stay with our brand and they tell their neighbors about CEAT,” Loethen said.

The CEAT FARMAX R80 farm tractor tire is a real work horse. High roadability, reduced soil compaction and superior traction are just a few features that make FARMAX R80 radial farm tractor tires an all-round performer.

Features and benefits include:

  • With a higher angle lug and lug overlap at the center, the FARMAX R80 offers superior roadability. A lower angle at the shoulder delivers superior traction.
  • A wider tread, with larger inner volume, reduces soil compaction, while rounded shoulders cause less disruption to the soil and crop.
  • A tread depth of R1-W lends the FARMAX R80 a long service life.

Amit Tolani has been named Chief Executive of CEAT Specialty.  CEAT Specialty has a US office which has been servicing the Ag and OTR tire requirements of North American customers since 2017.

“This is an exciting time for CEAT Specialty as we increase our distribution footprint across North America and provide products that meet the needs of farming operations of all sizes,” Tolani said.

Tolani added, “We are on track to complete the first phase of capacity expansion of our Ag radial plant in Ambernath. Further, we have committed capital expenditure to increase the capacity to three times of current in the next 18 months. This will further reduce our lead times. We have a great team in place headed by CEAT Specialty Tires president Ryan Loethen, and I look forward to visiting our North American dealers and customers.”
