EcoPoint3
EcoPoint3 is revolutionizing the performance and durability of solid tires.
EcoPoint3 is an advanced and sustainable technological solution created through the process known as Liquid Phase Mixing. EcoPoint3 is designed to improve key areas of tire performance including rolling resistance, tire life and energy efficiency without compromising performance.
The EcoPoint3 technology is a breakthrough in green and low-carbon tire development, from the selection of raw materials, manufacturing, and product life cycle, while significantly reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
The EcoPoint3 compound marks a quantum leap in revolutionizing the performance and durability of solid tires. After years of thorough research and development into high-performance rubber materials, the EcoPoint3 compound takes our products to a new level of performance and durability.
The all-new patented technology enables optimum mixing uniformity during manufacturing.
Compared to conventional dry-mixed silica compounds, the EcoPoint3 process provides superior distribution of ingredients.
This complicated process allows products’ masterbatches to contain less filler, higher ratio of stress at elongation, and minimum proportions of impurities – resulting in maximum control on physical properties of rubber compounds.
EcoPoint3 technology is effective in reducing heat buildup due its selective strong adhesion between rubber and filler vs. weak filler/filler interaction.
In addition, such refined and controlled rubber and particle interaction enhances wear and cut resistance on the tire.
EcoPoint3 technology allows maximum efficiency by reducing rolling, skid, and wear resistance without reducing performance.
The least amount of rolling, skid, and wear resistance (combined with low heat buildup, high wear & puncture resistance) allows for more productivity for applications, thus yielding maximum efficiency for your operations.
MAXAM Tire insists on having technologically advanced global R&D as the main driving force behind the company’s development.
A patented process, the EcoPoint3 produces a lower carbon footprint than traditional tires by reducing the stages required to mix masterbatch compounds compared to the traditional dry mixing process. This results in a significant reduction in energy consumption at the manufacturing level.
MAXAM Tire is a global leader and manufacturer of specialty tires engineered and custom built specifically for you.
When it comes to forklift tires, heat buildup is a key contributor to tire failure. The lower the heat buildup, the more durable a tire can be.

As agricultural tires are considered off-road and not US Department of Transportation (DOT) regulated, there are no firm rules to determine when an ag tire absolutely needs to be replaced….
Read MoreWhile solid OTR tires require zero maintenance and are built to last much longer than foam filled pneumatics, they still have a certain life span. Although these tires don’t require the maintenance pneumatic off-the-road tires require, MAXAM recommends operations inspect their solid OTR tires every now and then.
