Dunlop Aircraft Tyres, which is celebrating its centenary at the show, is introducing its first product for ATR aircraft.

The company is launching the bias nose wheel and radial main wheel tyres developed for the ATR 42 and ATR 72 turboprop at the show.

Dunlop Aircraft Tyres' chairman Ian Edmondson says: "We are particularly strong in the regional aircraft market segment and our new ATR tyres strengthen that position even further.

"These products have been developed following demand from ATR operators, who wanted to see an increased choice of tyres for their fleets, and they ensure we are ideally placed to support all the major regional aircraft operated by the world's airlines today.

"Thanks to the opening of our distribution and retreading facility in China, we are well placed to support the ATR fleet that operates in Asia Pacific, alongside our traditional markets of Europe, the Americas and Africa."
