About us

KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa has been the home of NUVO™ Holdings, formerly known as The Natal Rubber Group, since the mid 1970’s. With an affinity toward innovation, the group has advanced and, since new ownership grasped hold of the reins in 2008, its progression has not only lead to investment in new technology and equipment but in the actual brand ideology and identity itself. In early 2015 the company adopted the name NUVO™ as a representation of their progress and ability to break new ground in the rubber industry.

  • Rubber is our game - and we’re in it for the long haul! The one thing we’ve worked hard to ensure above all else with our solid tyres is to deliver international quality while maintaining South African prices. This has not been an easy balance but over four decades we have perfected a local formulation that allows us to craft each tyre seamlessly in house. Our compounds offer a high level of resilience with increased cut and abrasion resistance. This ensures safe and comfortable performance under harsh conditions. Our increased tyre width and metal reinforcement rings help to improve stability and load distribution, reducing stress and heat build-up within the tyre. You can trust that NUVO® is built to last #NUVO® #solidtyres #southafricanmanufacturing #NUVO®Rhino #NUVO®rubbercompounders #manufacturing #rubbercompounders

  • One of the first things that drew NUVO® into partnership with the Wild Ride as sponsors, was what this unique event stands for. While it provides a memorable eco-adventure for participants in a spectacular section of South African coastline, it has always been driven by a desire to give back to the people of the Wild Coast. The Wild Ride is on a mission with a clear purpose: 1.To responsibly organise an eco-adventure sporting event that will attract the interest of local and international competitors, bringing this multi-disciplined challenge within reasonable reach of all levels of athlete. 2.To initiate, through associated sponsorship and media interest, a fund to promote education, conservation and tourism of this ecologically-sensitive coastline. 3.To develop, by co-involving the local population, improved awareness of the natural assets of the Wild Coast and a strong interest in its preservation. Come on the mission with us and register your place at the 2025 event. Entries are open. #NUVO® #solidtyres #southafricanmanufacturing #NUVO®Rhino #NUVO®rubbercompounders #manufacturing #rubbercompounders

  • Solid tyres are the workhorses of the tyre world. They are designed for ultimate stability, durability and traction. Made of solid rubber and engineered to meet all requirements of safety and productivity, NUVO®Rhino operate superbly on all surface types in yards and warehouses around South Africa. Because they do not require air pressure, our solid tyres are puncture resistant and maintenance-free. With a high-loading capacity, NUVO®Rhino solid tyres are exceptionally economical and will go the distance for you. #NUVO® #solidtyres #southafricanmanufacturing #NUVO®Rhino #NUVO®rubbercompounders #manufacturing #rubbercompounders

  • The rubber industry has a major role to play in sustainability. The waste management of natural and synthetic rubbers is challenging due to their durability and resistance to degradation. The most common method of rubber recycling is mechanical grinding, where rubber products are shredded into granules which can be used for a variety of products, including athletic tracks and playground surfaces. Another method is devulcanization, which reverts rubber back to its original state to be remoulded and reused in new products. Although there are numerous advances in recycling technologies and improved methods for repurposing used rubber, our approach at NUVO® is to ensure we minimise the need for waste management in the first place. How do we do this? By developing a product that lasts and has a long lifespan. Minimising energy consumption is at the forefront of all NUVO® developments, and our forklift tyres are no different. Through a reduction in rolling resistance of 12%, NUVO® have ensured that your carbon footprint will be reduced when using NUVO®Rhino tyres. #NUVO® #solidtyres #southafricanmanufacturing #NUVO®Rhino #NUVO®rubbercompounders #manufacturing #rubbercompounders
