On construction sites, man and machine work inexhaustibly, day in, day out. Therefore, it is all the more important that vehicle tyres are reliable and satisfy the highest standards.

“On construction sites, cuts, cracks and other tyre damage happen every day,” says Daniel Gainza, Marketing Director of Continental Truck Tires EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa).“The new Semperit WORKER D2 - 318/80 R 22.5 answers the high customer demandsassociated with these challenging working conditions.When selecting the material compounds for the WORKER D2, we therefore placed particular emphasis on excellent durability.”

Whether on asphalt, rubble, sand or even mud – the WORKER D2 performs brilliantly on any surface and its five block pattern design offers impressive enhanced grip. The special tread design offers particularly good protection against tyre wear.

With these properties combined in the WORKER D2, Semperit is offering precisely the elements that are required on construction sites: reliability, durability and safety.

The new Semperit WORKER D2 is availablenow in all European Markets.
