An estimated 694 million metric tons (Mt) of total construction aggregates was produced and shipped for consumption in the United States in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 7% compared with that of the second quarter of 2020. 

Construction starts are cranking up coast to coast, and this is even before Congress passes the much-anticipated, massive infrastructure bill.

To succinctly sum up the state of the U.S. construction industry, you might say, “2020 bad, 2021 good!”

Our phones are ringing off the walls lately -- commercial tire dealers and construction and aggregates companies wanting Double Coin OTR tires! Residential construction is expected to be strong in 2021, and hopes are high for a substantial infrastructure spending bill.

If you're a mining or construction company, you know all too well that tires represent a significant chunk of your operating costs.

It's no surprise that C5 Equipment Rentals is discovering that Double Coin OTR tires are outlasting comparative Tier One brand tires.

Double good news on Double Coin OTR tires! We're getting rave reviews on the quality, and we have plenty of tariff-free tires in our North American warehouses.

If you're a mining or construction company, it's time to take a tough look at your tires in a tough environment predicted for this year!

• More and more small OTR tread patterns are radial, as opposed to bias.
