Project Title: A380 TYRES SUPPLYING PROJECT
Project Scope: A380 (22 tyres) deliver at DXB Airport
Timeline: 10 days
Cost: $5000 each tyre (weight per tyre 120 KG)

Each tyre is changed after approximately 180 landings and engineering team can change
one tyre in an hour. The tyres are inflated with nitrogen – not air like your typical car. This
is because nitrogen can withstand extreme temperatures and won’t combust due to the
intense friction which occurs during landing.

Aircraft tires work under extreme conditions, carrying up to 340 tons and accelerating at
over 250km/hour at take-off, in addition to enduring varied environmental stress when in
flight and taxiing.

• Bank Guaranty, Letter of Credit – Payment information.

• Cargo information from Air cargo companies and Tax duties.

PHASE 2: PROJECT PLANNING
