Off-Highway tire maker BKT participates in the Deutz-Fahr Powerdays 2026. These kicked off in Lauingen, Germany and will engage key stakeholders and the European dealer network over the next two months.

On this occasion, BKT enters the field as a Technical Partner of Deutz-Fahr with its tires from the Agrimax V-Flecto range to equip the new Series 8 TTV, which was presented as a preview at Agritechnica 2025 in Hanover, Germany.

Featuring VF technology, Agrimax V-Flecto is BKT’s solution for soil tillage applications where reduced soil compaction and self-cleaning capabilities are essential. The tire represents performance that is aligned with Deutz-Fahr’s philosophy, which will mark the beginning of a new era centered on technology and innovation at the Powerdays 2026.

“By taking part in this initiative, BKT reaffirms its commitment alongside Deutz-Fahr, a partner with whom we have shared a 20-plus-year journey based on a genuine focus on the needs of the agricultural sector,” says Lucia Salmaso, Managing Director, BKT Europe. “Over time, this cooperation has evolved steadily, turning common challenges into development opportunities, and ideas into increasingly targeted and effective solutions.”

Live field demonstrations will also take place during the Powerdays, allowing attendees to test both tractor and tire performance under real operating conditions. On this occasion, BKT’s Field Engineering team will hold training sessions dedicated to the tires of the brand, providing participants with in-depth technical insights into the solutions developed to meet the ever-evolving operational needs of the farming sector.
