    Michelin, a renowned tyre manufacturer with a long history of excellence, has recently shared some useful tips on reducing running costs associated with tires. These cost-saving measures can be particularly beneficial for individuals, businesses, and organizations that rely heavily on vehicles.

    Maintaining proper tyre pressure and wheel alignment, avoiding harsh acceleration and braking, and regularly monitoring tyre tread depth can all contribute to improved fuel efficiency, reduced tire wear and tear, and increased safety. By implementing these practices, drivers and businesses can prolong the lifespan of their tires, save on fuel costs, and minimize the risk of accidents caused by tyre-related issues.

    Overall, Michelin’s tyre-related tips offer practical and effective solutions for reducing running costs associated with tires, which can benefit a broad range of individuals, businesses, and organizations.

  • How are tyres made

    How are tyres made

    It’s quite understandable that we often overlook the significance of our tires. We learned a lot about tyres since the first pneumatic tyre was invented by John Dunlop in 1888.

    Now, we are committed to inspiring vehicle owners and drivers to regularly inspect their tires and treads or seek assistance from our extensive network. What’s truly remarkable is that tires are comprised of a multitude of elements, that exceed well over a hundred components, which encompass a wide array of materials, from textiles to steel cables, and a diverse range of rubbers and chemical compounds, all meticulously chosen to bestow specific properties to different parts of the tire. It’s a testament to the intricacy and engineering that goes into creating this essential component of your vehicle.

    While many people are aware that tires are primarily composed of rubber, the truth is that they are an intricate amalgamation of various raw materials. In fact, tire components encompass a blend of natural and synthetic rubber, carbon black, silica, a multitude of chemical additives, antioxidants, curing systems, and reinforcement cables made from textiles and other materials. Each of these components plays a crucial part in enhancing the tire’s strength, longevity, and road performance.

    To provide some perspective, Michelin, a renowned tire manufacturer, reveals that there are more than two hundred distinct ingredients in a typical tire, all of which are carefully chosen to influence their performance, safety, and efficiency. While rubber serves as the primary material, it is the harmonious combination of these diverse raw materials that culminates in the creation of a fully functional tire. This complexity showcases the tire industry’s dedication to delivering top-notch products that ensure safety and reliability on the road.

    That’s a lot that can go wrong or wear out but also a lot of learning over the past 135 years since the first pneumatic tyre was invented by John Dunlop.
