The company employs its patented zero degrees technology to produce the radial tyres, with a focus on performance and structural strength combined with enhanced materials.


Pirelli’s Yanzhou unit includes an R&D centre to customise products for markets in Asia.


Production from the plant is particularly targeted to the Southeast Asian, Chinese and Australian markets. The company aims to take a 3% share in China’s radial tyre market by end of 2006.
