By: CarbonX Roughly 750,000 tires manufactured with CarbonX are already in circulation within Europe. CarbonX works with a premium European tire maker to improve durability and grip without compromising the fuel efficiency of its winter tire. The expansion of CarbonX into the U.S. market will make the company's proprietary CarbonX material available to North American tire manufacturers. "Why choose between sustainability and performance?" Previously, manufacturers who wanted to produce sustainable tires had two choices: durability enhancers (carbon black ) and fuel efficiency enhancers (silica). CarbonX is composed of nano-sized carbon filaments that improve sustainability and performance at the same time. It is also porous and durable: the rubber penetrates the pores of the network and creates a strong connection. The improved interaction between CarbonX and the rubber molecules ensures that tires wear less, have lower rolling resistance and also optimum grip. Tires manufactured with CarbonX are more efficient because less energy is wasted in heat and noise generation. As a result, tires manufactured with CarbonX offer a solution to lower CO2 emissions and give more durability. Lab results combined with customer data suggest that tires made with CarbonX save up to 10% on fuel costs and last 10% longer than standard tires CarbonX currently works with 20 European tire manufacturers, with a goal to expand relationships within North America. A new 100% circular product line is expected by 2025, where CarbonX will be made from waste oils from end-of-life tires.
