Michelin Americas Truck Tires has opened a new Oliver Rubber retread facility in El Paso, Texas called Border Recapping.
Operating under the Border International umbrella of companies, Border Recapping increases Oliver Rubber's ability to serve the Southwest market with retreading and related services.
The 32,000-square-foot facility will also offer new commercial truck tires from Michelin’s tire product lines, including Michelin, BFGoodrich and Uniroyal brands.
The facility is a full-service truck, trailer, parts, service, body shop and leasing dealership and will employ seven technicians.
“Strategically opening Border Recapping next to our Border International dealership will create a one-stop solution for our customers needing new tires or retreads in addition to the service, parts and equipment we already provide,” said Charlie Cogdill, general manager, Border Recapping.
