Overview

Apollo Tyres is a prominent player in the global and Indian original equipment manufacturer (OEM) auto industry, offering a diverse portfolio of tyres for various vehicle segments. The company’s tagline, “go the distance,” reflects its commitment to empowering customers to push boundaries and achieve their aspirations.

However, communication applications have posed challenges for Apollo Tyres, as the growing reliance on digital platforms and the need for seamless communication have required the company to adapt to rapid changes.

To address this, Apollo Tyres explored upgrading its warehouse. A well-known standard Wi-Fi vendor estimated 45-60 access points would be needed. But Apollo opted for Altai’s C260-S solution, deploying only 16 access points. This strategic selection of the Altai solution has optimized operational efficiency and enabled Apollo Tyres to enhance the connectivity and communication capabilities within its warehousing facilities.
