Kumho Tire focuses on environmentally friendly products
“We learned that China’s car ownership has exceeded 85 million vehicles in 2010. With such a large car market, the demand for tires is also increasing. With the increase in tire consumption, how to dispose of used tires will not cause environmental pollution. The serious problem before everyone." Recently, Zheng Taozhong, general manager of Kumho Tire Tianjin Plant, told reporters at the company's 16th anniversary celebration in China.
Obviously, this company from South Korea's Kumho Tire Co., Ltd. has shown extraordinary thoughts on the responsibility for environmental responsibility. On the issue of resolving waste tyres, Kumho Tire is a pioneer. As early as 2008, Kumho Tire Co., Ltd. has already begun to introduce waste tires used in South Korea, TDF waste tires, to re-use thermal power generation to bring them into China.
The study found that 75% of a used tire can be used to generate electricity in a thermal-combined power generation project. The remaining raw materials, such as rubber powder and steel, can also be recycled. The thermal combined power generation project can handle 14 million tires each year. The 90,000 tons of TDF fuel generates the equivalent of burning 200,000 tons of coal. Through this project, not only the use of renewable energy can be achieved, but also the pollution caused by used tires to nature is avoided, and the environment is effectively protected.
“Kumho Tire always pays attention to the issue of environmental protection. This is not only reflected in the disposal of used tires, but also in the research and development of energy-saving and environment-friendly new tire products,†said Kim Ki Dian, director of the Kumho Tire China R&D Center.
To provide Chinese consumers with more energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly and safe tire products, Kumho Asiana Group, one of the eight largest consortia in South Korea, has invested in the creation of a professional tire manufacturing company in China. Kumho Tire established the China R&D Center in 2006 and successfully developed eco-friendly material tires that use polymer-dispersed silicon formulas, which can significantly improve the wear resistance of tires, and at the same time effectively reduce the rolling resistance, making the vehicle's fuel economy more efficient. Promote. In 2008, Kumho Tire officially launched the KR88, a high-mileage mileage-saving taxi special tire; in 2009, the environmentally-friendly KU28 tire was introduced, fuel consumption was reduced by 4%, and the carbon dioxide emissions per vehicle per kilometer were reduced by more than 200 kilograms; in 2010 The research and development of SOLUSKL21, the main supporting tire for sports cars, not only achieved a 3% to 5% reduction in fuel consumption, but also reduced 10% of ash during tire rolling.
