Tyre life

Looking for some feedback on tyre life. I have an issue with replacing tyres every 12 months. The units run in a manufacturing environment and warehousing is the reason they required these units. The site dose have concrete joins however product is on the floor and is quite abrasive. The product is minerals mined from the ground, the concrete floor isn't finished and the machines are always in the warehouse.

My question is there any way I can get more tyre life from the tyre?
Is there a different compound to suit this environment?

They are the standard tyre from the Nichiyu machine. Just having a complaint from the customer.

How can I get a hold of a workshop manual from Nichiyu fbfr 16-75 series?

Thanks Partsguy5

Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
