Standards Testing Laboratories (STL) will be offering its 2008 Tire Technology seminars at the company’s Massillon, Ohio-headquarters on June 3-5 and October 14-16. The seminars provide an overview of tire industry terminology, technology and the raw materials involved in the making of a tire, as well as the design, applications, compounding, construction and manufacturing processes. Rubber/polymer chemistry, physics, and testing standards and procedures are also covered during each two-and-a-half day educational program.

The seminars are designed to appeal to anyone directly or indirectly involved in the industry that needs a general understanding of tire design, construction and performance.
