Where are tires made? In what country are the tires made? How to find out the year of manufacture of a tire

Every car owner knows that tires tend to wear out. This is one of the main components in the car system that ensures stable movement. Therefore, their condition must be monitored especially carefully. But few people know that there are tire manufacturing plants in Russia. A common stereotype is that a foreign product is always better and of higher quality than a domestic one.

This was the case until recently. Today the situation has changed dramatically. Some brands made in Russia are exported to Western countries.

List of Russian tire manufacturers

Many drivers today confidently claim that it is simply impossible to produce high-quality tires in Russia. This opinion will quickly disappear if a person visits a modern Russian plant. Russian tires today are manufactured taking into account all international requirements, norms and standards. Production is fully automated. Production takes place using modern equipment. The production technology is identical to the European process for manufacturing car tires.

The following tire manufacturing plants operate in Russia:

There is also a common myth that Russian factories use rubber in the production of tires. This is absolutely not true. For more than 15 years, domestic manufacturers have not used materials that are not known for their positive properties as raw materials for their products. For passenger cars, sales of domestic tires are five times higher than Western products.

PJSC Nizhnekamskshina is the founder of European production technologies in Russia

A real giant plant is located in Nizhnekamsk. Almost every third car tire manufactured in Russia comes from Nizhnekamskshin. A special scientific laboratory accredited by the State Standard of Russia has been created on the territory of the plant. The laboratory fully complies with all technical competence. Today, Nizhnekamskshina is an entire scientific and technical center. Modern and technically equipped.

In 2004, the first car tires according to international standards were produced in Nizhnekamsk. The license was issued by the world's fifth largest Italian tire company, Pirelli. The products of Nizhnekamskshina PJSC were named “KAMA EURO”. Today the plant produces about 2 million environmentally friendly and high-speed radial tires per year.

Amtel-Vredestein – tires for any climate

Amtel in Russia is based in the cities of Kirov, Moscow and Voronezh. Today it is one of the leaders in terms of sales volume. The products are mainly aimed at owners of cars and SUVs. But you can also find rubber for heavy equipment and even bicycles. Amtel is constantly improving its products taking into account the changing climate of Russian latitudes.

Amtel produces tires in various categories, which allows them to occupy a leading position in the segment. Another advantage of the company is the presence of its own headquarters of scientists who are constantly working to improve products. Independent experts have already proven that car tires from Amtel are not inferior to their Western European counterparts. Most car owners note the reliability and quality of Maloya Futura Primato tires from Amtel. They are characterized by a long service life and increased wear resistance. However, to find them on store shelves in Russia, you need to really try.

LLC "Contaer" - produces the best tires for winter roads

Car tires from CONTYRE are popular among Russian car enthusiasts. The most famous tire can rightfully be considered Contyre Artic Ice. Rubber allows you to feel comfortable and confident on snowy roads of any complexity within the city and outside the city. Due to the fact that the manufacturer adds an increased amount of silicon during rubber production, Contyre Artic Ice maintains moderate elasticity at any temperature.

Automobiles from the company Contaer LLC are very popular. Just recently, Contyre Expedition tires began to be installed on UAZ Hunter vehicles. This tire has shown high levels of road grip, which allows it to be distinguished by increased cross-country ability.

JSC Belshina is ahead of everyone

"Belishna" is the largest enterprise for the production of rubber for cars in Europe. The company has established cooperation with many countries, including Russia. The plant has products in 200 standard sizes. More than 90% of products are radial tires. The plant originates in the city of Bobruisk in the Republic of Belarus. In Russia, it was established representatively in Volgograd.

Belshina specializes in the production of tires for large vehicles. For example, for the BelAZ mining dump truck. But recently, in the company’s model range you can find good tires for passenger cars.

JSC "VOLTAIR-PROM" is the best solution for Niva owners

The Volzhsky Tire Plant has been actively operating since 1964. Today, VOLTYRE-PROM JSC produces automobile tires of various categories. The VLI-5 VOLTYRE model is perfect for VAZ cars.

Most Niva car owners equip their cars with this particular set of tires. VLI-5 VOLTYRE has good maneuverability. Rubber perfectly overcomes obstacles in the form of mud and snow. Disadvantages include excessively noisy operation and prolonged braking on wet asphalt.

URALSHINA is a worthy manufacturer of car tires

URALSHINA is familiar to domestic drivers from the well-known tire models K-135 and O-104. The most widely used model is the K-135 for its excellent road grip. In general, there are conflicting opinions about this model. But, as they say, it depends on the taste and color.

The plant also produces “shoes” for large-sized agricultural machinery and tracked vehicles.

OMSKSHINA – stability and quality

Cordiant and Motador are probably the most famous model range among the products of the Omsk plant. Despite the fact that the OMSKSHINA plant, part of the Cordiant holding, is quite young, today we can already say that by producing high-quality products, the company managed to win the love and trust of Russian drivers.

The majority of car owners speak positively about the company’s products, and independent experts assure that the future of Russian car tire production depends entirely on the development of production technologies at the OMSKSHINA plant.

KShZ is the only representative of Eastern Siberia

The Krasnoyarsk Tire Plant is the only representative of this industry segment in Eastern Siberia. For more than 40 years, KShZ has been producing rubber for cars and trucks.

Car tires from KShZ are not very popular among drivers, but the trend is that the plant will soon reach new positions. This happens due to the introduction of European production technologies.

Yaroslavl Tire Plant is a legendary manufacturer of off-road tires

The Yaroslavl tire manufacturer is completing a complete list of manufacturers. Many people know about the legendary Ya-192 tire. Yes, these tires are not very good for fast and comfortable driving on asphalt. Most often, the Ya-192 was equipped with military equipment, since this model was characterized by its tenacity and durability. Therefore, for SUVs, tires from the Yaroslavl plant will be the best solution. The modern analogue of the YA-192 today is considered to be the higher quality and improved YA-471 tires.

Russia, as a tire producing country, is reaching a new level today. You should not pay attention only to where the rubber was produced. Performance characteristics and properties become more important. Domestic factories have made significant strides forward in production technology; some representatives sell their products to the West, where Russian tires are in demand.

In the era of globalization, it becomes difficult to understand where these tires are produced. For light truck tires that carry very significant loads, information about the manufacturer is very relevant. The brand of the tire only indicates that it belongs to a particular corporation, but if you want to find out in which country the tire was manufactured, then the information presented below will help you.

DOT MK 0407. The first two letters after DOT indicate the manufacturer (see list of factories below), the last four digits indicate the date of production of the tire, the first two digits indicate the week, and the last two digits indicate the year of manufacture.

Car tires are a key component of any car. A lot depends on how high quality they are. Therefore, motorists are often concerned about the country in which the tires were made. In this article you can learn about the country that produces Michelin tires. Photos of the products themselves are attached.

history of the company

The company was founded by the Michelin brothers, in whose honor it received its name. Its homeland was France, the town of Clermont-Ferrand. It was there that the company's first office was opened in 1830. Initially, Michelin specialized in car, bicycle and other types of tires. But it all started with the invention of the bicycle, with which Charles Terront won the marathon in 1891. The company's income immediately increased several times. This victory became an impetus for further development, and already when cars began to be produced in mass production, Michelin began to make tires for them.

The superiority of this company is largely determined by the latest developments that the company's engineers are constantly introducing into their tires. It was Michelin who invented them and which are now widely used all over the world. The symbol of the product is the familiar man from tires - Bibendum. A well-fed man made from tires is the epitome of Michelin. Initially, he was depicted with a glass in his hands, which figuratively conveyed the message that pneumatic tires “drink up” the unevenness of the road. It was invented in 1894, but its image has remained virtually unchanged since then.

Tire Specifications

Tires are the only part of the car that connects it to the road. are of high quality. All tires meet high European quality standards and are made from high-quality materials based on a universal rubber compound. The range of products is so wide that any car owner can easily choose the right one. Michelin tires are characterized by:

  • high level of security;
  • noiselessness;
  • efficiency;
  • good grip;
  • long service life.

Michelin is constantly introducing innovative developments, so tires are getting better and better. And thanks to mass production, the company can maintain low prices for its products. The latest development from the French is EverGrip technology, or “safety worn tire”, which helps maintain safety on the roads even when the tire reaches the end of its life.

Michelin tires: country of origin

Michelin has production facilities in 18 countries on all five continents. The company's owners decided that having a representative office in each country was cheaper than shipping tires from one country. Who is the country that produces Michelin tires? Below is the list:

  • France: Clermont-Ferrand.
  • Russia: Davydovo.
  • Germany: Homburg, Karlsruhe.
  • England: Stoke-on-Trent.
  • Italy: Alessandria.

Also producing Michelin tires are Poland, Colombia, Romania, Algeria, Serbia, India, Hungary, USA, Thailand, Canada, Mexico. In 170 countries around the world you can buy products of the world famous brand of the highest quality and at an affordable price.

Production in Russia

The producing country of Michelin tires is also Russia. The Michelin company began its work back in 1907, which was soon discontinued due to the revolution and resumed only in 1992. In the Russian Federation, the products of the French company are produced in the city of Davydovo in the Branch is located on the site of a former agricultural enterprise, and they mainly work there local residents. Michelin takes staff training very seriously: in order to get a job, everyone needs to undergo a year's training. In total, the plant employs about 1,000 people, who produce 5,000 tires per day. The plant has a workshop where absolutely all tires produced in Europe are studded.

The production facility in Davydovo produces mainly summer and winter tires for passenger cars, the diameter of which is 13-16 inches. Such tires are the most popular in the European territory of Russia. All tires manufactured at this plant are covered by the Michelin brand guarantee: within 10 years you can replace the tires if you find defects in workmanship or materials.

Production in Europe

Michelin tires have a huge market share of 20%. Of course, with such a large turnover, the company has manufacturing plants in many European countries. The largest Michelin tire producing countries are Azerbaijan, Austria, Spain, Greece, Kazakhstan, Italy and Ukraine. The leader in the number of tires produced is the Turin plant in Spain, which surpasses the French and German ones in the volume of manufactured products.

Michelin in the rest of the world

In addition to Russia and Europe, many countries in Asia and America take part in the supply of tires to the French company. Vietnam, USA, Turkmenistan, Japan, Uzbekistan and China are Michelin tire producing countries. And this is not the limit - the company's leaders are talking about further expansion into Africa and Australia.

Since the head office is interested in ensuring that all the company's products remain at a high level, Michelin experts regularly check the quality in various parts of the world. After a recent study, it turned out that tires made in America and Europe are in no way inferior in quality to their French counterparts. But the company was not satisfied with the factories in the territories of the former CIS (Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan). This happens because these companies have to use their own material to produce tires, and it is not of high quality. Unfortunately, neither innovation nor new developments in the field of tire production can save the situation.

Does quality depend on the country of origin?

How much does the quality of a tire depend on the country of manufacture of Michelin tires? The description and characteristics of the products are no different, regardless of where they are manufactured, say company experts. At least this applies to products manufactured in Europe and Russia. One major automotive publication even conducted a test comparing Spanish and Russian-made tires. It turned out that the technical characteristics of the tires are absolutely identical. Wear resistance, noise reduction, grip and braking properties were tested with the same results.

If you purchase Michelin tires in Russia, then most likely they will be “locally” produced. If you are not sure, or want to check the country of origin, just look at the labeling. It indicates not only the tire size, but also the place of production.

Rubber is a widely known material that is used in almost all areas of human life. Medicine, agriculture, and industry cannot do without this polymer. Rubber is also used in many manufacturing processes. What this material is made of and what its features are is described in the article.

What is rubber

Rubber is a highly elastic polymer. Its structure is represented by chaotically arranged carbon chains held together by sulfur atoms.

In their normal state, carbon chains have a twisted appearance. If the rubber is stretched, the carbon chains will unwind. The ability to stretch and quickly return to its previous shape has made material such as rubber indispensable in many areas.

What is it made of? Typically, rubber is made by mixing rubber with a vulcanizing agent. After heating to the desired temperature, the mixture thickens.

The difference between rubber and rubber

Rubber and rubber are high-molecular polymers obtained naturally or synthetically. These materials differ in physical and chemical properties and production methods. Natural rubber is a substance made from the sap of tropical trees - latex. It flows out of the bark when it is damaged. Synthetic rubber is produced by polymerization of styrene, neoprene, butadiene, isobutylene, chloroprene, nitrile. When synthetic rubber is vulcanized, rubber is formed.

What are the different types of rubbers made from? For certain types of synthetic materials, organic substances are used to obtain a material identical to natural rubber.

Rubber properties

Rubber is a universal material that has the following properties:

  1. High elasticity - the ability to undergo large reverse deformations over a wide temperature range.
  2. Elasticity and stability of shapes at small deformations.
  3. Amorphous - easily deformed with slight pressure.
  4. Relative softness.
  5. Poorly absorbs water.
  6. Strength and wear resistance.
  7. Depending on the type of rubber, rubber can be characterized by water, oil, gasoline, heat resistance and resistance to chemicals, ionizing and light radiation.

Over time, rubber loses its properties and loses its shape, which is manifested by destruction and a decrease in strength. The service life of rubber products depends on the conditions of use and can range from several days to several years. Even with long-term storage, rubber ages and becomes unusable.

Rubber production

Rubber is produced by vulcanization of rubber with the addition of mixtures. Typically 20-60% of the processed mass is rubber. Other components of the rubber mixture are fillers, vulcanizing agents, accelerators, plasticizers, antioxidants. Dyes, fragrances, modifiers, fire retardants and other components can also be added to the composition of the mass. The set of components is determined by the required properties, operating conditions, technology for using the finished rubber product and economic calculations. In this way, high-quality rubber is created.

What are semi-finished rubber products made from? For this purpose, production uses the technology of mixing rubber with other components in special mixers or rollers intended for the production of semi-finished products, followed by cutting and cutting. The production cycle uses presses, autoclaves, drum and tunnel vulcanizers. The rubber mixture is given high plasticity, thanks to which the future product takes on the required shape.

Rubber products

Today, rubber is used in sports, medicine, construction, agriculture, and manufacturing. The total number of products made from rubber exceeds more than 60 thousand varieties. The most popular of them are seals, shock absorbers, tubes, seals, sealants, rubberized coatings, and facing materials.

Rubber products are widely used in production processes. This material is also indispensable in the production of gloves, shoes, belts, waterproof fabric, and transport belts.

Most of the rubber produced is used to make tires.

Rubber in tire production

Rubber is the main material in the production of car tires. This process begins with the preparation of a rubber mixture of natural and synthetic rubber. Then silica, soot and other chemical components are added to the rubber mass. After thorough mixing, the mixture is sent to the oven. The output is rubber bands of a certain length.

At the next stage, the cord is rubberized. Textile and metal cords are filled with hot rubber mass. This method produces the inner, textile and belt layers of the tire.

What is rubber for tires made from? All car tire manufacturers use different rubber formulations and technologies. To give the finished product strength and reliability, various plasticizers and reinforcing fillers can be added.

Natural rubber is used to produce tires. Its addition to the rubber mixture reduces the heating of the tire. The majority of the rubber mixture is synthetic rubber. This component gives tires elasticity and the ability to withstand heavy loads.

When talking about car tires, we rarely think about what and how this product is made from. Meanwhile, everything is not as simple as it might seem at first glance. Tire production technology includes many stages and nuances. The initial stage of creating car tires is the development of their profile and tread pattern using specialized computer volumetric modeling programs. Next, the computer calculates and analyzes the efficiency of the tire in various situations and operating conditions, after which the shortcomings are eliminated, test samples are cut manually on special machines and tested in real conditions.

As a result of testing, information is collected for comparison with the performance of market leaders of the same class, after which final refinement is carried out, prior to launching the assembly line and mass production.

Production of rubber mixture

The material from which the tire is made is of paramount importance. It should be understood that tires from different manufacturers differ significantly, primarily in the properties of the rubber, the composition of which is often a trade secret. This serious approach is explained by the fact that the rubber compound determines the technical characteristics of the tires, including:

  • Level of road grip.
  • Durability and reliability.
  • Seasonality and wear resistance.

The rubber composition of modern car tires includes many materials and components: all kinds of additives and chemical compounds that determine the properties and behavior of the tires. Entire laboratories in each company are engaged in the selection and combination of these elements, because it is the chemical additives and their dosage that allow the product to outperform its competitors. The base for all is ordinary rubber, the composition of which is no secret to anyone. It consists of:

  1. Rubber, which can be isoprene (natural) and synthetic, is the basis of the rubber mixture (from 40 to 50 percent of the composition).
  2. Carbon black (industrial carbon black), thanks to the molecular compounds of which the tire not only has a black color, but also becomes durable and resistant to wear and temperature (from 25 to 30 percent of the composition).
  3. Silicic acid, which increases the adhesion of tires to wet surfaces, and is used mainly by foreign tire manufacturers (approximately 10 percent of the composition).
  4. Resins and oils, which act as auxiliary components to ensure the softness and elasticity of the product (about 10-15 percent of the composition).
  5. Vulcanizing agents, the role of which is most often assigned to sulfur compounds and special activators.

Let us note that Russian rubber is recognized as the best throughout the world, and therefore is in demand and used by most of the world's leading manufacturing companies. And since synthetic rubber is inferior to natural rubber in all respects, the Russian Federation will remain a leader in this area for a very long time.

Component production

The technological process of creating a tire, among other things, includes several parallel stages in the manufacture of its components, including:

  • The rubberized tape is the primary blank for making the tread, cut depending on the required size.
  • Breaker and frame are elements responsible for resistance to cuts, breaks and other damage. Also, the breaker and frame are responsible for the rigidity of the entire tire structure.
  • The bead of the tire is its most rigid part, and ensures tightness when mounted on the wheel rim.

The material for the carcass and belt of modern tires is either metal cord or fiberglass. The latter is used in the manufacture of premium tires, while metal cord is indispensable in models intended to equip trucks.

Assembly and vulcanization

The final stage of tire production is assembly. This technological procedure is carried out by applying layers of the frame, sidewalls, side and tread, and is carried out on a special assembly drum. After layout and giving the desired shape, all component elements are connected into a monolithic structure through the vulcanization procedure. Next, the product undergoes the necessary checks, is labeled and sent to markets around the world.
