During the Autopromotec 2025 in Bologna, Italy, KwikPatch presented its tyre repair products and spoke about the establishment of a new facility in Poznan, Poland. According to Juliusz Luczak, the CEO of KwikPatch Europe, at the moment, the facility is only supplying its products to Turkish BRISA retread factories, but the company hopes to extend its presence in the other European markets as well.
KwikPatch also played a part in establishing the Rubber Technics Industry (RTI) Centre, a tyre repair academy in Poland, approximately two and a half years ago. The RTI Centre acts hand in hand with the Polish Tyre Association and provides repair training services to large dealers in Poland, under the license of the Polish Tyre Association.
The training covers several programs, including basic automotive tyre repair and advanced professional, in partnership with the Panversa company and TVS Mobility Group. According to Luczak, the establishment of the RTI Centre and the training it provides represent a good opportunity for all tyre leaders in Poland, helping them receive training in various aspects of the business.
