The 2018 Tire Technology Expo and Conference has once again set a new benchmark for the event in Hannover, Germany. With 290 exhibitors across more floor space than ever before, 700 conference delegates and more than 5,800 experts through the doors during the three days, this year’s show was the biggest yet, in every way!

“Coming to Tire Technology Expo means we can learn about what is new, and what is ongoing in the industry – new innovations for now, and for the future. It’s important not to get left behind,” said Jani Rintala, project manager, Nokian Tyres.

The world’s largest gathering of tire design, development and manufacturing experts was opened by a keynote address from Pierre Loiret of Michelin, who detailed the forthcoming world standards for tire RFID tracking – just one of many technological developments being presented by 180 speakers at the conference (another record) on subjects such as connected and smart tire technologies, sustainable materials innovations and disruptive change in the global tire industry.
