Topy Industries, Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Hiromi Ishii; hereinafter "Topy Industries") will exhibit at the "Japan Truck Show 2026," held at Pacifico Yokohama from Thursday, May 14th to Saturday, May 16th, and will announce its new forged aluminum wheel product for commercial vehicles, "FORGEAL," and its innovative coating technology, "CRYSTONE."
New Forged Aluminum Wheel for Commercial Vehicles: FORGEAL
FORGEAL is a newly developed forged aluminum wheel for commercial vehicles, integrating the technologies cultivated by the Topy Industries Group in steel wheels. It combines lightweight, durability, and design.
[Key Features]
① [Lightweight] Thorough lightweight design to improve operational efficiency*1
Addressing the transportation industry's challenge of increased vehicle weight due to electrification and expanded safety equipment, it responds with lightweighting while also improving loading efficiency.
② [Durability] Fatigue resistance to withstand harsh operating environments*2
Suppresses material fatigue degradation caused by repetitive loads and continuous vibrations, maintaining stable performance over long periods even in long-distance, high-frequency operation.
③ [Strength] Reliable rigidity to withstand instantaneous impacts*3
Ensures high rigidity that prevents deformation or damage even under instantaneous high loads such as overcoming bumps or sudden braking, reducing and avoiding unexpected troubles.
④ [Gloss] Achieves a "shine" equivalent to a mirror
The wheel's gloss enhances the vehicle's design, contributing to driving pleasure for drivers, and to improved brand image for transportation companies, serving as a means to secure excellent professional drivers.
*1-3 Compared to Topy's own steel wheels
Innovative Coating Technology: CRYSTONE
CRYSTONE is an innovative coating technology developed to prevent dirt from adhering to wheels and maintain a clean state for a long time. It achieves high levels of anti-fouling, water repellency, oil repellency, and cleanability, contributing to improved vehicle management efficiency and professional drivers' work-life balance.
[Key Features]
① Developed a unique paint formulation and coating method by bringing together the expertise of a wheel manufacturer.
② Reduces dirt adhesion compared to conventional commercial vehicle wheel coatings (according to Topy Industries research).
③ Repels water, oil, and dirt, maintaining the material's original shine and gloss (according to Topy Industries research).
