Factory-direct HATT-engineered tires for the Port of South Louisiana, I-10 corridor, and Gulf Coast energy operations.
New Orleans sits at the mouth of the Mississippi River, where America's greatest inland waterway meets the Gulf of Mexico. The Port of South Louisiana, stretching along the river from New Orleans to Baton Rouge, ranks as the number one port in the United States by tonnage. This massive port complex handles grain, petrochemicals, coal, and containerized cargo, generating an enormous volume of truck traffic that feeds the nation's supply chain from the Gulf Coast northward.
The I-10 corridor running through New Orleans connects Houston to the west and Mobile to the east, forming the spine of Gulf Coast freight movement. The I-55 corridor reaches northward to Jackson, Memphis, and the heart of the country. These intersecting routes make New Orleans a natural hub for cross-country freight, energy sector logistics, and agricultural exports. Louisiana's petroleum refining and petrochemical industries generate specialized heavy-haul and hazmat transport that demands tires engineered for maximum reliability.
Hanksugi delivers factory-direct commercial truck tires engineered with proprietary HATT technology to give New Orleans fleets the lowest cost per mile available. The Gulf Coast's extreme heat and humidity accelerate tire wear, making our heat-resistant tread compounds and retread-guaranteed casings particularly valuable for Louisiana operations.

Hanksugi tires are engineered for the routes that keep New Orleans commerce moving
The east-west backbone connecting New Orleans to Houston and Mobile. This corridor carries petrochemical, container, and consumer goods freight. The HS88 long-haul drive tire delivers heat-resistant, fuel-efficient performance on these Gulf Coast miles.
Connecting New Orleans to Jackson, Memphis, and St. Louis. A critical corridor for agricultural exports and northbound freight from the port. The HS68 regional drive tire handles the transition from Gulf Coast humidity to inland conditions.
The New Orleans beltway serving the Gentilly, Eastern New Orleans, and port-adjacent industrial districts. Dense container traffic and frequent interchange merges demand reliable stop-and-go performance.
The largest port in the nation by tonnage, handling grain elevators, petroleum terminals, and container operations. Drayage operations require tires that resist heat buildup and handle maximum axle loads. The HS84 all-position tire is built for this environment.
Louisiana's petroleum refining and chemical manufacturing corridor generates massive freight volumes. Tanker trucks, flatbeds carrying pipe and equipment, and hazmat loads demand tires with reinforced sidewalls and chemical-resistant compounds. Hanksugi drive tires handle these demanding applications.
Mississippi River grain elevators in the New Orleans area export corn, soybeans, and wheat from America's heartland. Heavy grain hopper trailers require maximum load-rated tires. Hanksugi trailer tires deliver the capacity and durability grain transport demands.
Container ships, bulk carriers, and river barges converge at New Orleans. Intermodal drayage and port terminal operations run around the clock. Tires must handle wet dock conditions, heavy loads, and constant short-haul cycling.
