The development by Ellerbrock of the new precured Kontur tread makes it the firts to guarantee that every retreaded tyre has the same balanced profile as a new tyre. Kontur is so called because the exclusive profiled are perfectly shaped to suit the contours of the tyre´s shoulders. When fitted to the casing, Kontur´s close conformity to the original tyre contour overcomes even the slightest transverse or longitudinal distortion. The tread is perfectly bonded to the primary casing, becoming an integral and harmonious part of the complete tyre.

One of Ellerbrock´s strenghts is innovation, which is very much to the fore when considering the benefits of Kontur as outlined by the company. "The advantages of retreading with Kontur are the superior mileage, greater transverse stability of the vehicle, even, regular tread wear, and exeptional aesthetic appearance of the tyre, plus the confidence to know that the tread being used is based on premier know-how and highly developed experience in tyre technology".
