Making World-Class Tires

In 2013, GT Radial added two new R&D centers in the Unites States and Germany to the existing three centers in China, Indonesia, and the United Kingdom to further improve R&D capabilities around the world. With a team of over 600 experienced R&D engineers working closely throughout the five centers, GT Radial continues to enhance brand competitiveness and brand position to become a market leader.

Giti Excellent System governs not only operational excellence and efficiency but also employee health and safety in the work place and environmental sustainability by reducing natural resources and increasing reuse/recycling.

International Experience with a Multinational Background

GT Radial’s R&D personnel are made up of 20 different nationalities, creating a diverse atmosphere with cumulative knowledge and expertise. When combined with state-of-the-art tools and methods, GT Radial is enabled to produce technology driven products for improved and sustainable profitability while driving new market opportunities.

Proving Grounds

If indoor testing is successful, tires will be incorporated in one or more of the four GT Radial Proving Grounds located in: China (Anhui and Taiwan), the United Kingdom, and Finland (for winter tires).

On the test tracks, skilled drivers put tires through the paces to measure:

• Handling and Stability at High Speeds
• Riding Comfort
• Wet Handling
• Braking and Cornering
• Noise Levels (both inside the vehicle and outside)

Then, and only then, is the tire ready for the market. When you purchase a brand produced by GT Radial, you can do so with confidence in the fact that it was born from one of the most strenuous R&D programs in the tire industry.
