Vipal Rubber is once again recognised at the Recircle Awards, a global award that highlights the contribution of companies and professionals to the circular economy in the tyre manufacturing, retreading and recycling industry, winning two important awards. The winners were announced on Thursday, May 22, at Autopromotec, in Bologna, Italy.
Vipal competed with the world’s leading players in the tyre retreading and recycling industry and won in the categories Employee of the Year, with Leonardo Oliveira, Vipal’s Regional Sales Manager in the United States; and the Tyre Industry Education Award, with Univipal – Vipal Corporate University. It was also nominated in the categories of Best Supplier of Rubber for Treads and Best Supplier of Equipment for Tyre Retreading.
“Receiving this international recognition is an honour that reflects the daily efforts of our global team, the continuous investment in education, technology and the commitment to sustainable practices that drive the circular economy,” says Gilson Dugno, International Sales Manager at VipalRubber. “I dedicate this result to all our employees, partners and customers who believe in our mission.”
This is the fourth edition that Vipal has stood out in the international awards. The awards reinforce Vipal’s trajectory of innovation and excellence, which had already won in the 2021, 2022 and 2023 editions. In 2023, the year of its 50th anniversary, the company was recognised as the Best Supplier of Precured Treads, Best Supplier of Tyre Retreading Equipment and had Vipal’s Commercial Manager in Europe, Fabrício Nedeff, elected Employee of the Year.
