Engineered for Scrap: Maximize Uptime with Flat-Proof Tire Solutions

A scrap metal yard is one of the most hostile environments for any industrial tire. The ground is a constant threat, littered with sharp-edged steel, sheared metal fragments, and other debris. In this environment, relying on standard pneumatic tires means accepting a cycle of failure, downtime, and risk as an unavoidable cost. Geelanter offers a definitive end to this cycle.

The Challenge: The High Cost of Pneumatic Tires

THE PROBLEM: Operational Paralysis

A single puncture brings a high-value machine to an immediate halt. This stops your workflow, creates bottlenecks, and wastes man-hours as your crew waits for a repair or replacement. Every minute of downtime is lost revenue.

THE PROBLEM: Uncontrollable Costs

The expenses go far beyond the tire itself. You face a constant financial drain from repair services, replacement tire inventory, labor costs for changes, and the premature scrapping of tires with good tread but irreparable punctures.

THE PROBLEM: Critical Safety Hazards

A sudden blowout, especially on a loader carrying a heavy or unstable load, is a major safety risk. It can lead to a loss of machine control, endangering the operator, nearby personnel, and your equipment.

The Solution: Geelanter Flat-Proofing Technologies

Geelanter eliminates every one of these problems by making flats impossible. We offer two premier flat-proofing solutions, allowing you to choose the perfect fit for your equipment and operational needs. Both deliver the core benefits you require: total puncture immunity, exceptional durability, and efficient shock absorption.

OPTION 1: Geelanter Solid Tires – The Ultimate in Durability

  • Multi-Layer Construction: Not just a block of rubber, our solid tires feature a high-strength, cut-resistant tread layer, a resilient cushioning core to absorb impacts, and a steel-reinforced base for absolute rim security.
  • Advanced Cushioning: Select models incorporate Sidewall Apertures—engineered openings that allow the tire to flex like a pneumatic tire, providing a smoother ride, protecting the machine, and reducing operator fatigue.

The Verdict: The ultimate “install-and-forget” solution for the most demanding applications, delivering the longest possible service life.

OPTION 2: Geelanter Tire Filling (Poly-Fill) – Puncture-Proof Your Preferred Tires

  • Proven Process: We take a standard pneumatic tire and replace the air with a specialized, resilient polymer. The polymer cures to a soft, synthetic core that completely fills the tire cavity.
  • Pneumatic Ride, Solid Reliability: Because it uses a conventional tire casing, you retain the exact handling characteristics and tread design of that tire. The poly-fill core mimics the cushioning of air but is 100% immune to punctures.

The Verdict: An ideal choice for equipment where a specific tread pattern is preferred or when you need to cost-effectively upgrade your existing tire inventory to be completely flat-proof.
