Addressing evolving tire demands with Twaron®
The automotive industry’s transformation is reshaping tire design requirements, with a focus on performance and sustainable solutions. Twaron® supports manufacturers in achieving this balance, providing the strength and reliability essential for UHP tires while contributing to long-term environmental goals.
Reducing CO₂ footprint
- The high strength-to-weight ratio of Twaron® enables reduced material consumption, lowering the CO₂ footprint in the raw material phase.
- Enhanced reinforcement properties of Twaron® support lighter tire designs, improving fuel efficiency and reducing CO₂ emissions during the use phase of the tire.
- Increasingly strict governmental standards are driving the need for low-carbon tire designs, making Twaron® a valuable component in meeting these requirements.*
Electrification
- Twaron® enables tires to carry the heavy loads of EVs and SUVs while minimizing overall tire weight. This helps manufacturers meet the performance demands of nextgeneration mobility.
- With superior mechanical properties, Twaron® supports efficient torque transfer in EV tires, contributing to improved ride performance.
- Reduced rolling resistance helps extend driving range and supports overall vehicle efficiency.
Material circularity
- The incorporation of recycled raw materials minimizes resource consumption and promotes a circular lifecycle.
