MAXAM’s AgriXtra XL Tyres Earn DLG Approval for Superior Soil Health, Fuel Efficiency, and Traction
MAXAM Tire proudly announces that the German Agricultural Society’s (DLG) independent testing institute has awarded its AgriXtra XL VF and Standard Radial R-1W agricultural tyres. The prestigious “DLG Approved” quality seal. This recognition underscores MAXAM’s commitment to delivering high-value, high-performance solutions for the agricultural sector.
Three Key Advantages Over Competitors
In recent comparative tests conducted by DLG in Germany, the AgriXtra XL tyres delivered three critical advantages over leading competitors:
- Reduced Soil Compaction: Field tests demonstrated that the MAXAM AgriXtra XL VF710/70R42 tyres left the smallest track depth of just 7.3 cm at an inflation pressure of 0.6 bar (9 psi), indicating minimal soil disturbance and promoting better soil health.
- Greater Fuel Savings: Laboratory dynamometer tests revealed that both the AgriXtra XL Standard and VF tyres outperformed other brands in fuel efficiency, offering significant cost savings and environmental benefits.
- Improved Traction: In field tests, the tyres achieved higher tractive forces with reduced slip rates, enhancing operational efficiency and productivity.
“Our tyres delivered critical advantages during the comparative testing, earning them the DLG Seal of Approval,” said Greg Gilland, Vice president of Global Agriculture at MAXAM.
“This confirms that we offer a superior product that delivers exceptional value on all comparative measures at a more competitive price.”
The AgriXtra XL series is specifically designed for high-horsepower tractors and harvesters. The VF (Very High Flexion) tyres provide up to 40% higher load capacity or can operate at 40% lower air pressure, all without compromising speed or performance. This flexibility allows farmers to reduce soil compaction and improve fuel efficiency, which directly contributes to increased productivity and sustainability.
“By reducing soil compaction, enhancing fuel savings, and improving traction, our AgriXtra XL tyres help farmers achieve greater profitability while promoting sustainable farming practices,” added Gilland.
MAXAM continues to leverage its expertise to innovate and expand its agricultural tyre offerings. These proven results also give OEMs the confidence to partner with MAXAM, ensuring their tyres meet and exceed industry performance standards. The company is committed to meeting the evolving demands of modern agriculture by developing products that enhance performance and deliver unmatched value.
