Through combining VF and ProgressiveTraction® technologies, the TM200 ProgressiveTraction® delivers excellent traction, low compaction, and reduced stress on the soil. With an ability to operate at low inflation pressures to further enhance comfort during field operations. Apart from being versatile in all conditions, it features an advanced tread design and premium materials, ensuring long-lasting performance alongside a reduced environmental footprint.

Trelleborg Tires’ proprietary ProgressiveTraction® technology, an award-winning innovation recognized for its effectiveness in modern farming, plays a key role in the tyre’s performance and its unique double-edge lug design increases grip and stability, to give up to 15 per cent increased traction than competitors’ standard tyres and improved productivity and fuel efficiency whilst guaranteeing safer,  a more comfortable operation even on sloped terrain.

The TM200 ProgressiveTraction® features VF technology, enabling operation at lower inflation pressures to reduce soil compaction while maintaining full load capacity for precise and efficient fieldwork. The tyre is ideal for tractors with heavy front-mounted implements, as it allows operators to perform tasks accurately while preserving soil integrity and deliver up to 40 per cent higher load capacity and 8 per improved soil protection compared to standard tyres.

Its reinforced VF carcass provides superior flexibility and lateral stability even in demanding working conditions, ensuring safe operations on slopes and uneven ground. Based on comparative tests, the TM200 ProgressiveTraction® also achieves 26 per cent greater lateral stability and 10 per cent longer tyre life versus competitors’ standard tires, translating into enhanced productivity, reduced fuel consumption, and long-lasting performance in the field.

Luca Sabelli, Brand Director Trelleborg Tires says, “With the TM200 ProgressiveTraction®, Trelleborg Tires continues to lead the future of the agricultural tire industry,” said “We are proud to introduce VF technology to specialized tractors for vineyard and orchard operations, supporting farmers in reaching new levels of performance, control, and operating efficiency and transforming innovation into real advantages for tomorrow’s agriculture.”
