Tompsett Burgess Growers—one of East Anglia’s major carrot and parsnip producers—was seeing heavy tyre wear across their 35-tractor fleet. With long road miles and tough fieldwork on rented land, they required sturdy, high-quality tyres, with 80% using specialised rowcrop wheels. 

By implementing BWT’s recommendations, Tompsett Burgess Growers achieved not only instant gains for the whole fleet by running on the correctly specified wheels for the application, but also gains such as reduced tyre wear due to the correct wheel being supplied, thus lower costs of tyre replacements.

Through collaborating with BWT, Tompsett Burgess received rowcrop wheels for new tractors, suited to field work, extended lifespan of existing rowcrops due to refurbishment, and tractors and sprayers that travelled long distances were provided with tyres that had good road wear properties.
