FLORENCE, Ky. — Retread America recently opened an Oliver Rubber retread plant close to its North American headquarters in Florence, Ky.

The new facility employs Oliver Rubber retreading equipment and supplies Oliver retreads to intermodal and commercial customers.

Retread America is the primary retread supplier to InterStar North America, a maintenance and repair management network. The Oliver Rubber retreads supplied by Retread America will address the needs of InterStar’s intermodal and emergency response system (ERS) for its commercial fleet customers.

“We look forward to working with Retread America and InterStar to develop the ERS and intermodal business to its full potential,” said Bill Guzick, president of Oliver Rubber. “The Oliver retreading plant also is a perfect fit with InterStar’s cooperative agreement with Michelin North America to offer Michelin brand truck tires through InterStar’s ERS network.”
