Tire Industry Project
The Tire Industry Project (TIP)—currently comprised of 10 leading tire companies—is the primary global forum for the tire industry on sustainability issues. Formed in 2005, TIP serves as a global, voluntary, CEO-led initiative, representing approximately 65 percent of the world’s tire manufacturing capacity.
Its aim is to proactively identify and address the potential human health and environmental impacts associated with the life cycle impacts of tires to contribute to a more sustainable future.
