Mass production is scheduled to begin in 2025.
Adopted as a Japanese national project, we succeeded in dispersing nano-level materials in rubber - a feat that had previously been deemed difficult to achieve.
We tested the tires on the road with excellent results, with wear resistance and power consumption improving by about 20%.
The tires will be fitted to local government rental bicycles and commence operation.
Full-scale mass production by leading tire manufacturers is scheduled to begin.
We will provide tire reinforcements for progressively larger mobility applications, creating a new $40 billion market by 2035.
We are actively pursuing some of the world's leading themes in Research and Development.
