Wheels
Titan is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of wheels for the agriculture, construction, forestry, and
mining industries, with thousands of types and sizes developed to meet the needs of a diverse customer base.
Our prominent role in this market comes with the responsibility of managing and reducing the environmental
impact of our products.
Beginning in 2002, Titan Wheel transitioned away from old paint technologies such as liquid baking enamel
and 2-part polyurethane paints. These methods required the use of solvents with high volatile organic
compounds (VOC) concentration, generating hazard air pollutants (HAPs).
Currently, Titan Wheel only uses waterborne urethane and powder production paints, which do not require the
addition of solvents in their application. The water-based paint used today releases substantially fewer
harmful emissions than the paints used before 2002. Powder paints are also solvent-free and emit negligible
amounts of VOC.
The switch to eco-friendlier paints allowed Titan to offer products with superior quality, while
significantly reducing the generation of hazardous waste and air pollutants.
