Friday, September 02, 2011 Marangoni Expands North American Operations
 Over the past 10 years, Marangoni Tread North America (MTNA) has built a loyal customer base in Canada among independent truck tire retreaders, significantly increasing unit sales, market share and market strength. MTNA is now making a significant investment in expanding the plant in Madison, Tennessee.
This $10 million commitment to the North American market has allowed MTNA to increase production capacity of RINGTREAD, their splice-less retread technology, by 30 percent as well as to install the necessary machinery to begin producing Marangoni’s innovative conventional precure product UNITREAD within their North American plant. Construction and installation is now complete and production will begin to ramp up. Employment at the plant has increased by 20 people, and MTNA expects to add an additional 8-10 people within the next 6 months.
This year also marked a new direction for MTNA as they established themselves as a full-service supplier and total solutions company for independent retreaders. MTNA now offers a full catalog of retread equipment and plant supplies to aide dealers in the retreading of commercial truck tires.
