FORERUNNER IN ENVIRONMENTAL AFFAIRS

Nokian Heavy Tyres is a pioneer among tire manufacturers when it comes to environmental responsibility. It is embedded in our product development. We aim at tires that have minimal impact on the environment. In practice, this means efficient production processes and safe, environmentally friendlier products.

LONG-LASTING, COMFORTABLE, EFFICIENT

The rubber compounds, tread patterns and structures of our special tires are designed to withstand hard wear and tear, which translates to more operating hours and reliable usage in all conditions. Minimising noise and vibration is also included in the principle of sustainable development.

Nokian Heavy Tyres was the first tire manufacturer in the world to use only purified, low-aromatic oils. Tyre development focuses on durability and a lower rolling resistance. Effortlessly rolling tires reduce fuel consumption and lower harmful CO2 emissions.

WITH RESPECT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

For tire, making the machine move safely is just the beginning. Every work area requires different tire properties to ensure optimal operation for both the operator and the environment.

Our product development aims to tires that not only function flawlessly in the designated machines and given conditions but also have a minimal impact on the environment. The rubber compounds, treads, and structures are designed to withstand demanding conditions, reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions with low rolling resistance and treat the soil gently with low surface pressure.

Utilizing the best properties of the machine and tires adds efficiency to work.

COMFORT FOR THE DRIVER AND THE ENVIRONMENT


Nokian Tyres is known as a pioneer in environmental issues. This goes for the entire life cycle of a tire. As for production, this means such measures as using only purified oils and utilizing raw materials as efficiently as possible. Respect for the environment is part of our product development philosophy. We aim to pay increasing attention to environmental issues in the design of new products, starting from ethical raw material acquisition all the way to a well-functioning recycling system. Nokian Tyres is the world’s first tire manufacturer to have fully eliminated high-aromatic (HA) oils in its production in 2005.
