Interpneu - Your partner for the tyre trade

Ever since it was founded in 1970 in Karlsruhe, the trading company that is part of the Pneuhage corporate group has developed into one of the leading wheel and tyre wholesalers in Europe. The advantages of being an independent family-owned company are made clear by the broad range of products and brands for cars, motorcycles and also commercial vehicles of all types.

Since 1987 its own house brand of PLATIN for wheels and tyres has been a shining example, not only of an outstanding price-performance ratio, but also for variety and quality. Car and van tyres for summer and winter and numerous aluminium wheel designs cover just about every current vehicle make and model.

The successful introduction of tyre pressure monitoring systems began in 2014, including their integration into a new online dealer store and the well-known wheel configurator. Interpneu is one among the leading tyre and wheel wholesalers in Europe.

Large stock, fast logistics and a variety of mounted wheels as the basis

Capable logistics ensure that both large and small orders reach customers throughout Europe within between 24 and 72 hours, depending on the distance.

The central warehouse and logistics centres for car, offroad and transporter tyres in Speyer and for aluminium wheels in Karlsruhe are the core of the service concept. More than 1.3 million tyres and 300,000 light metal wheels are kept in stock.

Specialists set up individual wheel-tyre combinations of up to 26 inches in the preparation of mounted wheels that was extended in 2012 and includes certified run-flat tyres. Short delivery times also during the season made for strong growth in this business sector in recent years. There was especially heavy demand for preconfigured mounted wheels with tyre pressure monitoring systems.

Interpneu is constantly expanding its warehouse for truck, tractor, EM and industrial tyres at the location in Nossen, near Dresden. A comprehensive range of selected and proven exclusive brands such as Westlake, Magna Tyres, Starmaxx, Maxam or Ultimate XT and Peakmaster offers dealer customers cost-effective alternatives to the premium segment.

Wide range and expert consulting as the secret for success

The EU energy label for tyres

The new EU tyre label helps consumers to decide in favour of a higher fuel efficiency class for their tyres. This can contribute to large reductions in running costs and emissions. Enhanced wet grip means greater road safety, and details of external rolling noise contributes to a reduction in traffic noise levels. 

The actual fuel savings and road safety depend heavily on the behaviour of drivers, and in particular on the following:

  • Eco-driving can significantly reduce fuel consumption
  • Tyre pressure needs to be regularly checked to optimise fuel efficiency and wet grip.
  • Stopping distances must always be respected.

Fuel efficiency class

Less rolling noise saves fuel and cuts CO2. This property is assigned to classes A to E.

Wet grip class

Wet grip is assigned to classes A to E. Wet grip is crucial to safe driving. For instance, the difference between class A and class E braking distances is 18 m.

External rolling noise class

The label presents the volume in dB and the class A (quieter), B, or C (louder). The noise emitted by tyres affects the total noise levels emitted by the vehicle.

Snow grip

The snowflake symbol confirms that the snow tested tyre keeps within the 3PMSF limits (type approval).
