IFEMA’s Motor & Mobility division, through the Mobility Car Experience Show and the Used and Nearly New Vehicle Show, is the official sponsor of the Hevea Tyre Industry Awards 2019. The awards ceremony, in which the winners of the different categories will be announced, will take place on 28th November 2019 at the facilities of the Madrid Trade Fair Institution (IFEMA).

The Hevea Tyre Industry Awards aim to value and recognise the work done by all the people, companies, initiatives and institutions that are part of the automotive aftermarket industry that revolves around the tyre, a vital part of road safety and the environment.

David Moneo, director of IFEMA’s Motor & Mobility division, says: “The Tyre Industry is a fundamental part of the present and, of course, of the future development of mobility. It acts as a protagonist in the decisions that will shape the new concept of transporting people and goods by road, where safety and ecology are the two main lines of work.”
