Feedback of participants and visitors

Andrey Prinada, Director General at Istra SKB

“I think this is the best platform to introduce yourself in the tire business. I think it is the main argument. The people you have been waiting for all year come right from the first minute. This is great because it is very difficult to visit everyone personally in our big country, but here everyone comes to visit you to say hello, exchange opinions, confirm old relations, and discuss new prospects. It is very important.

The major tire manufacturing and material recycling professionals will come here to this stand. Here we will organise this synergy of producers of raw materials for the tire industry and processors. They share this experience here and get the best results, because only here, at this show, can we bring them together and organise communication that quickly yields results and immediately translates into finished products, in the form of tires.”

Aleksandr Grachev, Director at Khabarovskaya Torgovaya Kompaniya

“Tires & Rubber is a platform where leading manufacturers are represented. Those who strive upward, increase momentum, change designs, and innovate.

“This is probably the only major trade show in Russia. Almost all major players of Russia and representatives of Asia come to Moscow. Everyone on the market is here.

“You can see the changing trends here. The new things appears, the old ones go away. I invite everyone next year. Here you can cover any need of your company and find what you need.”

Ekaterina Golomolzina, PR and Advertising Head at Altai Tire Factory

“Tires & Rubber is an effective platform for business development. Our entire target audience can be found here. It is also a competitive environment. Therefore, on one platform we can see both what we want to strive for and those people who value us as partners.

“One should always take part in trade shows. This is a good platform for popularizing your products, your services, and announcing information about your company to a wide audience.”

Ilya Artemyev, Project Head at San Susi

“Tires & Rubber is a reason to make new acquaintances, find new clients and have a great time. The show provides a chance to communicate with current clients and generate contacts. The demonstration of the equipment arouses more interest among customers, because customers can feel the products with their hands. We can also conduct testing if the equipment is operating at the stand.”

Anton Lisitskikh, Commercial Director at Shinnik

“Tires & Rubber offers a great opportunity to meet with tire business partners and tell them about our new products. We have brought light truck tires with increased load indexes. People are looking tires like these. We have made these tires and now are showing them.

“We had meetings scheduled with our partners from different Russian regions. Here we share our experiences and tell about our new products. New tire manufacturers from Russian regions are also coming. Here we communicate not only with customers, but also with our colleagues in the tire industry. Experts from the tire industry from all over Russia come here. This is a great opportunity to meet them. Here we learn about new trends on the tire market as a whole. There are a lot of interesting things every year.”

Anatoly Anisimov, Deputy Director at ENA-Holding

“Tires & Rubber is a platform where you can show your innovative capabilities: either in the form of a material or in the form of a structure, like us. Polymer chemistry does not stand still. New rubber compounds and plastics are developed precisely for tires, rubbers, and rubber products. We decided to have our own specific products that can be used in mechanical engineering.

“In order to position yourself somehow, to say that despite the fact that all the difficulties that occur in our engineering community, you are still alive, you need to show yourself somewhere.”

Lance Guo, Sales Manager at Tesche Tire (Qingdao) Co., Ltd.

“We came to this show well prepared, because our products will undergo significant updates this year. Besides, the Russian market has always been very important to us. Therefore, we took the organisation of this event very seriously and strive to become a part of this large market.

“We also hope that thanks to the show this year we will be able to officially present our brand for the first time. In fact, even before entering this market, we already had some business partners with whom we were negotiating. This time we officially came to Russia to meet with them in person.

“Of course, we also met new partners. There were also some clients with whom it used to be very difficult to establish contact by email or other means, but at this exhibition we had the opportunity to meet them directly. Therefore, it is really a very valuable experience and a great success for us.”

Andrey Kashin, Sales and Marketing Director at PetroMaster

Tires & Rubber is a convenient platform for the development of sales of truck tires. For us, this show is a good, convenient way to communicate with partners. We prepare in advance. We invite our clients and colleagues here. We already have comprehensive communications here. The show allows you to communicate not only by phone, but also face-to-face with partners. It is very convenient. This year we present several improvements of the plant, made specifically for the Russian market. This is one of the main aspects of communication with our clients and partners.”

Ivan Krupey, representative, Dmitry Litvinov, Manager for Development at Composite-Trade

“Tires & Rubber is about meeting interesting people and presenting your own new products. This is an event for the Russian rubber industry and for the tire industry. There is an opportunity to present new products here, and I think the show contributes to the development of the industry as a whole.

“The atmosphere is positive. Customers are interested in our products. Customer interest increases at the beginning of the year. We offer new products. This platform is designed for tire manufacturers so that their relationship with the state is stronger in terms of standards and financial support.  

“Of course, it is necessary to take part in the show, because it allows us to position the company in the eyes of customers in a certain way and make the brand composite more recognizable.”

Boris Blank, Director General at Flouroelastomers

“Tires & Rubber provides opportunities. The opportunities that can be brought to life. People come here and together they can discuss and quickly find solutions to all technical issues and features, nuances that cannot be discussed by e-mail or video conference.

“The special feature of this show is that it is aimed at people who are special. Industry is the blood and flesh of any economy, the foundation of the foundations, what makes a country strong, independent, and gives it the opportunity to strive forward and develop. But who makes this industry? Unique people, production workers. This show is designed specifically for them, so that they can come here, create new ideas, new trends, new productions, and develop together.”
