About The Conference

Clemson University Presents its 2010 Conference,
An Industry Standard for Serious Tire Professionals

The 26th Annual Tire Industry Conference will focus on ever-changing facets of the tire industry, including the latest design and performance, regulatory issues, technology and global competition and the resultant consequences to the tire and automotive manufacturers and consumers.

The Conference features 22 presentations delivered by experts in their respective fields. You will hear representatives from the primary tire manufacturing industry, academia, government, tire and vehicle interests. Explore current topics that will have profound effects on business and technology.

You’ll hear what industry leaders have to say about future trends, the global forecast and their implications, developing industry alliances and partnerships, the latest study involving recent advances in Chinese markets, and new technology for tracking tires.

And, you’ll learn how advanced tire technology is on the cusp of transforming global transportation systems, facts you need to know about natural rubber including what affects its volatile pricing.

Additionally, you will gain insight on current public policy challenges facing the tire industry, the changing role of management, the tire engineer and tire compounder in a litigious society, results of a heavy truck tire debris study, and new developments in the retreading industry.

And there is more you will learn...including current trends in TPMS technology, an examination of global demand, trends, products, costs, materials, and future opportunities, and lifecycle strategies in retreading, recycling and tire recovery.

As with previous conferences, there will be ample opportunity to interact with other key members of the industry to update yourself on the latest business and technology strategies. You will benefit from your interaction with top-notch speakers and other colleagues who have traditionally represented all aspects of the industry.

 

“Liked the combination of technical and more‘managerial’ issues regarding prices, marketing and even politics. Very well organized.” - Dov Derman, Rubber Materials & Processes Director, Pelmar Engineering, Haifa, Israel
