For the retreading sector, of particular interest was the pre- sence of Italian start-up Rover Research, which was presen- ting an alternative and more sustainable retreading process based on the use of water jet technology. “This was a first edition that leaves us fully satisfied from all points of view,“ commented Renzo Servadei, CEO of Auto- promotec. “The response from companies in the sector - and beyond - was more than positive, and the same goes for the operators who visited the exhibition. As always, we have to thank the Institutions, MAECI - Ministry of Cooperation and International Affairs, ICE - Agency for the promotion abroad and internationalisation of Italian companies, and the Emi- lia-Romagna Region for having supported us in this new ex- perience from the very beginning. Special thanks on our part go to ANFIA, which has contributed in content and more as a partner in the initiative: an important partnership, which once again demonstrates how our sector must proceed united in going through this moment of revolution.” Having concluded the event at Futurmotive - Expo & Talks, the organisers are already looking forward to the next edition of Autopromotec, which will celebrate its 30th edition from 21 to 24 May 2025.
