The AGRIMAX FACTOR from BKT passed the DLG (German Agricultural Society) test with flying colors. The latest member of BKT's 70 series set new standards for standard tires in the resource conservation module test – and achieved performance values that are otherwise more common for tires with VF technology.

The Horn & Co. RHIM Mineral Recovery group, headquartered in Siegen-Weidenau, has been operating a processing centre for steel production residues in Weitefeld/Westerwald since 1956, with a 98% recycling rate. High-performance wheel loaders are at the heart of the fleet. Since January 2025, two new wheel loaders with operating weights of 16 and 20 tonnes, equipped with the high-performance BKT-Earthmax tires, have been in operation.

By looking at the shared history of Bohnenkamp and BKT, a lot can be revealed about our own development, our reliability towards customers and partners, and our continually fresh ideas for a successful, partnership-based future. We spoke with our Chairman of the Board Gregor Rüth and the Head of Overall Sales Thomas Pott about the previous, very dynamic years and future perspectives.

The Indian tyre manufacturer BKT has grown significantly over the past ten years. The company with headquarters in Mumbai, India, has opened two production facilities as well as its own industrial waste production plant. The expansion of production capacity and the growth-promoting investments in research and development have positioned BKT well to serve the sectors OTR, agriculture and industry worldwide with tyres. We spoke to BKT Chairman Arvind Poddar during the anniversary celebrations.

BKT brand tyres have been part of our company's standard product range for 25 years. We celebrated the partnership that has connected us ever since with a joint event in Osnabrück to mark the anniversary. Time to look back - and set the course for the future.

On 18th June 2023, the Bohnenkamp AG Family & Friends Day took place to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the partnership with the tyre manufacturer BKT. The event promised a varied programme for all age groups.

At the end of March, the annual meeting between Bohnenkamp and BKT took place – for the first time on this occasion at the COREUM. The multi-day encounter in the exhibition and event centre for construction machinery was extremely productive.

On the occasion of the site expansion in Bhuj, India, the OTR tyre manufacturer BKT announced a comprehensive growth plan. In three years, an annual production volume of 600,000 tonnes and a turnover of two billion dollars are expected to be reached. A modernised production of carbon black, a significantly expanded tyre mould manufacturing, new products such as rubber tracks and a further expansion of the brand's own power plant support the brand expansion plans.

Whether on the football pitch, golf course, green belt or parklands – wherever grass grows in top condition, lawn mowers and other lawn care machines should drive on special lawn tyres. However, not every type of lawn tread is suitable for every application. For maximum lawn protection, it's worth taking a closer look at the main use and type of use – and at the lawn tyre range from Bohnenkamp AG.

In early February, a delegation from Bohnenkamp AG visited the significantly expanded Bhuj production site of tyre manufacturer BKT in India.
