On a trip through the Midwest this past summer, we were fortunate to meet with a few of the people working with our Alliance 363 IF tire in the field and record their thoughts on what makes the Alliance 363 an excellent tire. The people we spoke with ranged from a Sales Manager and Field Engineer to a pair of corn and soybean farmers from Iowa to a custom applicator from Minnesota—and the praise this group gave the Alliance 363 IF is nearly as diverse as the group itself.

With 42 years of experience working for Central Farm Service (CFS) in Kenyon, Minnesota, it’s safe to say that custom applicator Steve Aldrich has driven a lot of different machines and ridden on a lot of different tires over the years. Because of this, we were very excited when we learned he was willing to share the great experience he’s had with our Alliance AgriFlex 363 IF tires on video.

The use of solid tires continues to become more widespread within the waste, recycling, and construction industries. As margins get tighter, wages rise, and qualified employees become more scarce in these fields, the need for businesses to reduce downtime and increase productivity is more important than ever. By reducing the risk of sidelining a machine due to tire damage—whether from a chunk of metal or employee inexperience—solid tires can quickly prove themselves to be a solid investment. And with the option to choose designs with shock-absorbing apertures, driving on solid tires has become less jarring.

This holiday, the nation’s warehouses are busier than ever ensuring stores and homes are receiving the season’s must-have gifts. The good news is that the demand for consumer goods is on the rise, thanks to a robust economy. Even better, as people in the U.S. increasingly move toward internet shopping, the need for warehouses and distribution centers continues to grow in support of the growth of e-commerce. Online sales this year tallied over $5 billion over Thanksgiving and Black Friday alone, and mobile shopping recorded its first billion-dollar sales day on Black Friday. These numbers are sure to continue to rise over the coming years.

On December 5, the United Nations and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) will celebrate World Soil Day, giving global thinkers and leaders an opportunity to discuss the important role soil plays in our daily lives. While we don’t expect you’ll hear many people saying “happy soil days,” we do appreciate the significance of soils, since protecting them is of utmost importance in the design of our high-quality, innovative agriculture and forestry tires.
