JK Tyre & Industries has introduced the 'Ux Green' tyre, which delivers performance comparable to that of a standard radial tyre while registering a lower carbon footprint.

Designed and developed by the team at JK Tyre, based on the decade-long research conducted at JK Tyre's Global Tech Centre, the product has been tested extensively indoors and outdoors on roads and on test tracks to validate the performance, a press release from JK Tyres noted.

The tyre is developed with highly sustainable materials like natural rubber, bio-attributed SBR and BR, bio-based oil, recycled rubber powder, recovered carbonaceous black, recycled polyester and steel wire. Most of these materials are ISCC (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification) certified.

Dr Raghupati Singhania, Chairman & Managing Director, JK Tyre, noted that with a strong emphasis on creating substitutes to conserve the ecosystem, the tyre has been fully designed & developed using 80% sustainable materials.

“This development is not only a reflection of our highly skilled R&D team, but it also reinforces our serious commitment to advancing sustainable growth and boosting societal value creation, moving towards carbon neutrality by 2050,” he said, adding that the range of such tyres will be offered in due course.

Earlier, the tyremaker launched the Levitas Ultra Range for premium vehicles along with Ranger tyres and Off-road tyres.
