The ContiRV20 is specifically designed for use on ground support equipment at the airports, especially tow tractors. The ribbed design minimises vibration, uneven wear and gives maximum ride comfort and mileage. With its innovative tread compound the ContiRV20 ensures low rolling resistance, which reduces fuel consumption and vehicle CO2 output. The robust construction minimises sidewall and foreign object damage (available as tubeless using TSR technology to reduce run flats).

Due to the Natural Rubber compound the Continental SC20 Mileage+  and SH12 offer exceptionally low rolling resistance and low heat build up. This relates to extended tire life and reduced cost per hour. (More hours in between changes and lower fuel consumption) Combined with that is the soft ride offered due to the 3-stage construction of the tires. The softer ride relates to greater protection for the machine, loads carried and operating surface).

The ContainerMaster's tread pattern has been specially developed for Heavy Duty Forklifts and reach stackers, having a wide flat profile and dense tread rubber at the centre bar region which offers excellent durability and longer lifetime in severe abrasive conditions.
