Building a sustainable tire industry – advances and initiatives - session 3
The tire industry is under growing pressure to cut CO₂ emissions, comply with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and adopt sustainable raw materials without compromising performance. Ecosky process oils, developed from tall oil derivatives, offer a 100% bio-based solution with a negative carbon footprint. This presentation will outline the regulatory drivers, share performance and LCA results, and highlight industrial scalability through real-world tire compound studies. Attendees will gain practical insights into how Ecosky enables compliance, sustainability and enhanced performance for the next generation of tires.
- How bio-based process oils like Ecosky support EUDR compliance, reduce CO₂ emissions and align with global sustainability targets
- Key insights from performance and LCA results, showing that sustainability and tire performance can go hand-in-hand
- Practical pathways for industrial adoption, including real-world case studies demonstrating scalability without quality trade-offs
