Autolaker supports MHE after-market maintenance at food industrial with top quality forklift solid tires and pneumatic tires.
Finding good after-market forklift tires for the food industry requires careful consideration of safety,
durability, and compliance with industry standards.
1. Determine the Right Tire Type
Forklift tires come in three main types—choose based on your application:
- **Pneumatic Tires** (air-filled) – Best for outdoor/rough terrain.
- **Solid/Cushion Tires** (press-on) – Ideal for smooth indoor surfaces (common in food warehouses).
- **Polyurethane Tires** – Non-marking, great for clean environments like food processing.
For the food industry, non-marking, anti-slip, and easy-to-clean tires are essential for indoor area, regular black tires are acceptable for outdoor working.
2. Consider Tread & Traction**
- **Smooth treads** work well for clean indoor floors.
- **Anti-slip treads** (e.g., ribbed or grooved patterns) help in wet or greasy conditions (common in food processing).
3. Choose the Right Material**
- **Polyurethane** – Best for **non-marking, chemical resistance**, and long life.
- **Rubber (solid or pneumatic)** – Good for durability but may mark floors.
- **Thermoplastic (TPE/TPR)** – A hybrid option with good grip and cleanliness.
4. Verify Load Capacity & Size**
- Match the **tire size and load rating** to your forklift’s specifications.
- Check the **ply rating** for durability (higher ply = more strength).
