India’s first eco-friendly tyre from JK Tyre
Indian based tyre JK Tyre and Industries has introduced the county’s very first passenger car tyre produced with international sustainability and carbon certification (ISCC) along with certified sustainable raw materials.

The UX Royale Green has been progressively researched and developed over the past decade at JK Tyre’s Global Tech Centre and is currently being manufactured at the company’s production facility in Chennai. The new tyre incorporates bio-attributed polymers, renewable oils, recycled rubber powder, recovered carbon black, recycled polyester and sustainable steel wire.

The IKSCC certification, an internationally recognised standard underlines the traceability and responsible sourcing of these eco-friendly materials across the company’s supply chain. This is the first time such certified raw materials have been implemented into the manufacturing of passenger car tyres in India.
