In just two years, Tyrepac has become known as Asia’s first tyre portal. Its co-founder shares what’s in store for the company in the next few years

Visitors from around Australia and overseas will flock in their tens of thousands to witness the largest dedicated road transport equipment show the country has ever staged.

The biennial International Trailer, Truck and Equipment Expo returns to Melbourne Showgrounds from Thursday, 18th March to Saturday, 20th March.

It was estimated that half a billion dollars of the latest in road transport technology was on display in 2008 thanks to the hundreds of exhibitors who participated in and took ownership of the event. Hundreds of trailer combinations ranging from tankers, curtain siders, tippers, skels, drop decks, wideners, extendables and logging jinkers in semi, B-double, B-triple to road train configurations lined the streets and grassed areas of the 19 hectare Melbourne Showgrounds site.

Visit the Tyre Protector stand in the VTA Pavillion at the Show. Entry is FREE!
