Tyre Response Group

What Tyre Response Group does

Tyre Response Group (TRG) is a Perth-headquartered, Australian-owned provider of independent OTR (Off-The-Road) tyre management services to the mining industry. The company's core offering is full-service tyre management delivered on-site at customer mine sites, including tyre rotations, thermal assessments to detect overheating, mine road condition monitoring, pit inspections, and performance reporting. TRG augments these services with Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) and a proprietary tyre management software platform that tracks real-time tyre conditions (pressure, temperature, tread wear) to enable proactive maintenance decisions. The company operates four integrated revenue streams: managed tyre services, contract labour hire for skilled OTR tyre technicians (with technician rates up to A$75/hour), a Registered Training Organisation delivering the AUR21920 Certificate II in Automotive Tyre Servicing Technology, and the TRG Industrial division distributing ESCO tyre servicing equipment, inflation products, proprietary chemicals (WheelPro, TyreGel), and engineered solutions.

TRG's commercial model is B2B enterprise field sales targeting mining operators directly, with services delivered on-site across Australian mine sites (including Tier 1 miners Roy Hill and Fortescue Metals Group) and through the TRG Africa subsidiary in South Africa serving mining operations across Africa and the Middle East. The company employs a relationship-driven go-to-market, supported by presence at industry events (IMARC, AIMEX, MINExpo, Diggers and Dealers) and content marketing. Founded in 2021 by ex-Otraco leadership, TRG has scaled to operate across 20+ mine sites with a 100+ year combined experience leadership bench and recorded safety metrics of LTIFR 0 and TRIFR 1.89. The company is pursuing ISO45001 and ISO14001 certification to align with tightening 2025 Australian WHS regulations, and recently secured the Australian Authorised Dealer partnership with ESCO Equipment Supply Company in November 2025.

Direct peers

• Kal Tire: Kal Tire is one of the largest independent OTR tyre service providers globally, offering mine-site tyre management, TPMS, and retreading for haul trucks and earthmoving equipment — a direct peer competing for the same enterprise mining contracts as TRG, particularly in Africa and the Americas.
• Otraco: Otraco is the global market leader in OTR tyre management for mining, providing managed tyre services, labour hire and training at mine sites worldwide — directly competing with TRG for the same enterprise mining customers in Australia and abroad. TRG's leadership team all previously worked at Otraco.

Broad incumbents

• Continental Commercial Specialty Tires: Continental manufactures OTR and earthmoving tyres for mining and construction equipment and provides associated digital monitoring and service offerings — a broad incumbent whose products and adjacent services compete with TRG's managed-service model.
• Goodyear Off-the-Road: Goodyear's OTR division manufactures large mining and earthmoving tyres and offers tyre management solutions to mining customers — overlapping with TRG's service scope but within a much wider tyre and rubber products portfolio.
• Trelleborg Wheel Systems: Trelleborg supplies OTR tyres for mining, construction, and agricultural equipment and offers accompanying wheel and tyre solutions — comparable to TRG in the mining OTR end market, though primarily through product sales rather than managed services.
• Yokohama Off-Highway Tires: Yokohama's off-highway tire business manufactures OTR tyres for mining and construction equipment and offers supporting service programmes — a broad incumbent whose products overlap TRG's mining customer base.
• Bridgestone Mining Solutions: Bridgestone manufactures OTR tyres for mining and offers integrated tyre management, monitoring and consulting services through its mining solutions business — overlapping with TRG's managed services but as part of a much broader tyre and rubber products portfolio.
• Michelin Earthmover / Mining: Michelin is one of the world's largest OTR tyre manufacturers and offers accompanying tyre management services, performance monitoring, and consulting to mining customers — a broad incumbent whose service business overlaps TRG's, though Michelin also sells the underlying tyres.

Emerging players

• Marangoni Retreading Systems: Marangoni specialises in OTR and commercial tyre retreading systems and services, including for mining — comparable to TRG in addressing the mining tyre lifecycle, but focused on retreading technology rather than integrated on-site management and monitoring.

Regional players

• Pro-Tread / Tyreright Australia: Tyreright is an Australia-based independent OTR and commercial tyre service provider operating across mine sites and industrial customers — a regional peer competing with TRG primarily within the Australian market.
