Our Commitment to the Environment

Nankang takes pride in our responsibility of providing a better environment for the future. Therefore our formula features are designed to answer the growing demand of the use of low-pollution materials.

Formula Features

1. Conformity to European regulations with HA Oil-Free formula and neccessary measures taken in our manufacturing processes to reduce the generation of volatile organic compound (“VOC”)

2. Extended tyre life not only creates higher economic value for our customers but also reduces the impact of scrapped tyres on the Environment.

3. Specialised silica compound lowers rolling resistance for fuel savings and carbon dioxide reduction
