Michelin — more than tires

We all love and know Michelin for its tires. But to achieve this result, the company has been constantly developing and reinforcing its research departments. According to the manufacturer, the brand employs about 6,000 research specialists and invests millions of dollars in new technologies.

Michelin has built up in-depth expertise in the design and manufacture of high-tech materials such as elastomers, biomaterials, synthetic rubber, and metal 3D printing. They are used in any sphere imaginable — from medical to industrial. 

The company is actively working on solutions for hydrogen mobility, developing hydrogen fuel cells that can reduce carbon dioxide emissions and bring innovation to environment protection. But we, of course, are really interested in Michelin tires.

Michelin and modern technology

Tire of the future

In 2017 Michelin brand presented a revolutionary prototype of the "tire of the future" called Vision. Made from durable, biodegradable materials, the tread of this one-piece airless tire can be 3D-printed after it is worn out.

Track Connect system

In 2018 the company presented the Track Connect system. It allows real-time measurements of temperature and pressure in tires and analysis of these data using a special app. 

Airless tires

In 2019 Michelin UPTIS (Unique PunctureProof Tire System *) was created. It is the first new-generation airless solution: this tire is a complete wheel with a disc, load-bearing spikes, and a flexible rim. UPTIS tires are made from new composite materials with options that can help withstand the loads, speed, and dynamics of modern passenger vehicles. The airless design of the revolutionary UPTIS tire minimizes the possibility of punctures and pressure drops.

The Michelin Group and GM have announced an agreement to develop UPTIS airless passenger car tires, scheduled to be launched in 2024.

One of the most important inventions in the tires world — replacement pneumatic tire

In 1891 a cyclist showed up at a plant in Clermont-Ferrand: he needed to repair his bicycle. The whole process took about 15 hours. This episode got the Michelin cousins thinking. Soon after Edouard Michelin developed and patented a true technological breakthrough of its time — a replacement pneumatic tire. It only takes about 15 minutes to repair it! In the same year, cyclist Charles Terron won the Paris-Brest-Paris race on the Michelin brothers' replacement tires. 

And for the Paris-Bordeaux-Paris race, the Michelin brothers created L'Éclair — the first car with removable pneumatic tires. Despite the fact that the brothers came last in the competition, the participation in the event proved that pneumatic tires on a car perfectly support its weight and can be used successfully as on bicycles.

Radial tire — a true technological breakthrough

In 1937 Michelin introduced a steel carcass for truck tires. The new product was more resistant to overheating and stress. 

Later the company's extensive scientific research led to another technological breakthrough — the radial tire. Unlike a bias tire, the carcass of which consists of one or more pairs of cord layers arranged so that the yarns of adjacent layers intersect, in a radial tire the carcass cord is stretched from one bead to the other without overlap of the yarns. The shell of the carcass is covered with a powerful flexible belt made of a strong cord. 

The invention was much safer than bias tires and outperformed them in terms of fuel efficiency and service life, as well as retained its original characteristics for a long time.

The first radial tire was produced in 1949 under the name MICHELIN X — and all other tires produced by cousins took this name.
