effortless, fast & sustainable!

Extending the life of your tyres and saving CO₂

Quick and easy regrooving (regrooving) of commercial vehicle tires with the regroovable label.

Life extension of at least 25 %

Regrooving a tyre and extending its life by at least 25% means buying fewer new tyres.

Positive for CO₂ balance and wallet

A regrooved tyre consumes less fuel, which has a positive effect on the CO₂ balance and on the wallet.

What our clients say

Gerhard Röger

Stefan A. Eisenhofer Transporte

Before the seasonal tyre changes, we always re-groove for three months straight. Before the Bear-Cut, using the handheld device, we did about four tyres every day. After that, we had to stop, as the strain on the shoulder was very noticeable. Working with the machine is much more comfortable. You’re still fit in the evening.

Alexander Schuon

Alfred Schuon GmbH

Schuon stands for sustainability, which is why we continuously optimize eco-efficiency across all processes. The Bear-Cut fits perfectly into our sustainability strategy.

Andreas Oppel

Spedition Oppel GmbH

By regrooving with the machine, the downtime of our vehicles is reduced, and the workshop bays become available more quickly for other tasks. We expect the investment in the machine to pay off for us within five years.

Thomas Oppel

Spedition Oppel GmbH

We have been regrooving our tires for a long time, but up to now only with conventional handheld tools. However, since this is a very time-consuming task, we were looking for a way to increase the number of tires we can regroove per year without adding extra workload for the team.

Peter Lüdorf

Gummi Berger Gruppe

Gummi Berger’s customers receive premium tires from us and therefore expect premium services – for example, to maximize the mileage of their high-quality casings while reducing fleet operating costs and lowering their carbon footprint. The Bear-Cut therefore strengthens customer loyalty.

Stefan Eisenhofer

Stefan A. Eisenhofer Transporte

I am highly impressed by the results and the functionality of the machine. Recutting not only saves money, it is also a highly sustainable measure: the mileage of the tires increases significantly, which means we need to purchase fewer new tires. This conserves resources and reduces the carbon footprint of our transport fleet.

Georg Wittwer

Wittwer Spedition & Logistik GmbH

We are truly impressed with the Bear-Cut. It starts with the quick and easy commissioning, including the professional training, and extends to the outstanding cost-benefit performance of the system.

Patrick Bröckers

spieker products GmbH

When I first got to know Mark and Bear Machines, I couldn’t really imagine what the Bear Cut was all about. After testing it myself for the first time – complete enthusiasm! Over time, Mark has shown me many small improvements, all of which he produced himself. You can see the passion with which the Bear-Machines team works on the product.

Dirk Werner

Verkehrsgesellschaft Kreis Unna (VKU)

We have done the calculations carefully, and even under cautious assumptions, it turns out that the Bear-Cut pays off for us within three years at the latest, most likely even earlier.

Frank Rogge

Vertriebler Reifenindustrie

[…] Their semi-automatic regrinding machine is an absolutely brilliant masterpiece by the active engineers and developers at Bear Machines GmbH. Anyone who knows anything about truck tires and their reconditioning will quickly recognize the ingenuity🤔🤯🤑 and cost-effectiveness🔝💰 of this Bear Cut machine and invest accordingly to use this machine profitably, whether as a truck tire dealer or as an end user = freight forwarder🚛 🚚 […]

Nina Meiners

Cornexion

The BearCut “tire regrooving machine” is a truly innovative product. Regrooving a tire increases its lifespan by at least 25%. This not only saves money but also benefits the environment. Add to that the great founders, what more could you want!

Mark Berendsen

Managing Partner

With our Baer-Cut machine, we create efficiency and many advantages for hauliers and fleet managers who have commercial vehicles in use. By continuing to use existing tyres, our customers save money. At the same time, this is sustainable and ensures a better environmental balance.

Calculation of the CO₂ value

The formula for calculating the CO₂ value is as follows:

Acceptance:

  • Additional mileage of a tyre due to regrooving 50,000km
  • Fuel saving with 4 regrooved tyres 2l/100km -> saving 0.5l/100km per tyre
  • Tyres last 25% longer

 

Fixed value:

  • 2,662 kg CO₂/l Diesel
  • Average tyre weight 70 kg
  • 1kg raw material tyres equals 1.21kg CO₂
  • Min. 18 kg CO₂ for the production of a tyre

 

1.) CO₂ savings due to lower fuel consumption

     50.000km x 0,5l/100km x2,662 kg CO₂/l = 665,5kg CO₂

2.) CO₂ savings due to the raw material not being required

     70kg x 1,21 kg CO₂/kg x 25% = 21,2 kg CO₂

3.) CO₂ savings due to the energy saved for production = min. 18 kg CO₂

 

This results in => CO₂ savings per tyre = 705 kg CO₂ / tyre

By regrooving truck tyres, a CO₂ saving of approx. 1.1 kg CO₂/100km is achieved per tyre and the mileage of the tyre is increased by approx. 25%.

An average good truck tyre usually has a service life of about 200,000km, whereas e.g. high-quality Michelin truck tyres can reach a maximum service life of up to 300,000km.

The manufacturing process of a car tyre, which weighs about 9 kg, produces about 18 kg of CO₂. This value will therefore be much higher for a truck tyre.
