Nokian Tyres starts tire deliveries from its Oradea factory

Nokian Tyres is starting tire deliveries from its new factory in Oradea, Romania. The first deliveries through Nokian Tyres distribution centers to Central European customers and consumers include winter and all-season tires.

The Romanian factory is strategically located close to Central and South European consumers and customers, and it will focus on manufacturing passenger car tires sold to these markets. The factory is the world’s first full-scale zero CO2 emission tire factory with all energy generated without fossil fuels and utilizes the most modern technology to produce tires.

“This week marks the start of the tire deliveries from our factory in Oradea, Romania. The first truck loaded with Oradea made tires left from the factory taking the tires to our distribution centers and later to our customer and consumers in Central and South Europe. The factory, which is the world’s first full-scale zero CO2 emission tire factory, will strengthen our ability to serve our consumers and customers in Central and South Europe and beyond and support our growth.

Reaching this milestone in less than two years from the Groundbreaking of the factory is a significant achievement for us and I am very proud of the Nokian Tyres team who has worked hard to make this possible. I also want to thank all partners and Romanian officials who have helped us along the way,” says Paolo Pompei, President and CEO of Nokian Tyres.
