OMV & Sons introduces ‘Puncture Safe’ to curb puncture-related motor accidents in Ghana
OMV & Sons has officially launched a new puncture prevention and tyre life extender in Ghana.
‘Puncture Safe’ , made in the United Kingdom (UK), was first introduced onto the Ghanaian market in 2019 but was officially launched in the country by OMV & Sons on February 6, 2021.
Speaking at the launch in Accra, the Operations Manager of OMV & Sons, Jemima Siaw Yeboah, explained that Puncture Safe covers largely the inner tyre at speed and that when a puncture occurs, the centrifugal forces of the rotating tyre, plus internal pressure and escaping air, forces the Puncture Safe gel into the puncture and a permanent seal is created.
She noted that Puncture Safe also serves as Tyre coolant, adding that it will help to protect lives on roads in Ghana. She added that Puncture Safe is also 95% organic, water based and environmentally friendly.
Puncture Safe is a one-off use, until the tyres are entirely worn out. The product comes in three grades namely high speed, heavy duties, and extra heavy duties.
“We have introduced this to Ghana to help curb the accidents on our roads. Research conducted by the National Road Authority, shows that punctures contribute majorly to accidents on the roads,” said Jemima Siaw Yeboah.
