Twixtra®, hybrid cord reinforcement solutions of Kordsa, creates many alternatives to UHP tires to enhance performance and minimize raw material consumption. Twixtra® product portfolio has high modulus and low gauge reinforcement offerings that boost the performance while minimizing some concerns during tire design and material selection.

Twixtra is the cord combination of mainly high modulus and high fatigue materials to deliver high performance with “less” amount of materials.

Monolyx, with its superior properties such as cut resistance, impact absorbtion and lateral stiffness, is an outstanding protective reinforcement material alternative without a corrosion problem.

It is always better to review past events and experiences before idea generating about future of tire industry. When we take a look at the past decade, emerging...

There have been many studies carried out with the aim of finding a solution to reducing rolling resistance, but only a few have related to the main reason why rolling resistance is important. It is time to remind ourselves how the Rolling Resistance story began and how far it has gone from a CO, emissions perspective through medium- and long-term scenarios.

Industry is busy with the clarification of the future of mobility elements like autonomous cars, sharing economy and EV vehicles. Let’s take step backward and focus the main reason why we are discussing the future more than ever.

The Paris Agreement signed in December 2015 was the first time as many as 195 countries adopted a universal climate deal. The challenging target they set themselves was to keep global warming lower than 2°C. If no measures were taken, warming would reach ~4.8°C by the end of this century.
