Tough quesTions deserve honesT answers. The truth is, the name had to go. But everything else about the products is what you know.
what does the sale of veyance Technologies mean to me?As we join forces with Continental ContiTech to become the world’s largest industrial rubber company, you can be
confident that though the branding may not look exactly like it used to – EVERYTHING else about the products
is remaining the same.
why is rebranding necessary now?Veyance Technologies will no longer be operating under the trademark licensing agreement with The Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Company. We are working diligently to replace several Goodyear-owned sub-brands with new Continental ContiTech-approved replacements. Moving forward, we will produce, promote and sell our products under the new
ContiTech brand names.
what else is going to change?Nothing. Rest assured, it is still the same product, manufacturing facility, quality and reliability you’ve come to count
on from Veyance Technologies. We will continue to provide a wide variety of industrial hose, fittings and accessories and
stand behind each and every product throughout the transition and beyond.
Perhaps most important, you can trust that Customer First, always is our core belief. it always has been. it always will be.

As we join together with Continental ContiTech, you can take confidence in knowing that everything you’ve grown to rely upon, believe in and trust with Veyance Technologies is still here. We always have and always will be proud to stand behind every industrial hose,
