MICHELIN Durable Technologies
allows us to offer truck tyres with
unprecedented performances

1) A new architecture.
  • Introduction of a continuous steel belt, at a length of 400metres, over the circumference of a rolling part
  • this technology, associated with others, allows Michelin to leap forward in performance of the new architecture in terms of:
    • new load capacities -
      payload increase
    • longevity / retreadability.
2) The tread patterns which regenerate
Thanks to the appearance of new grooves on a tyre without human intervention - at 2/3 wear. The tread which regenerates on its own !! Therefore, bringing a new grip, a better traction throughout the whole life of the tyre and therefore a 'durable' safety.
    • Excellent mileage
    • Excellent grip

    Patented:
    • The 3 dimensional sipes which maintain the rigidity of the tread blocks allowing a high mileage,
    • all whilst preserving the flexibility necessary to retain grip at the contact area.




    • A long lasting high level of grip
    • More safety

    Tread Regeneration Technology
    Patented rain drop sipes:
    • opens up after 2/3 wear to give a new groove situated at the centre of the tread block
Increased productivity      
  Increased safety  
      Respect of the environment
