New Tire Model: Made in China, Not Made in China

Although China’s special protection for tires sold to the United States is a serious protectionist act of the United States, it also sounded the alarm for the domestic tire industry. One of the leading companies in the industry, Qingdao Saihong Stock Co., Ltd. suggested that currently there is a need to use new concepts and models to break the traditional industry development pattern, increase industry consolidation efforts, gradually concentrate decentralized resources, and eventually form the industry’s “Chinese brand”. Non-"Made in China", China's tire industry can finally break the predicament and gain a firm foothold in the world market. The original "Round Wheel Industry Chain Circular Economy Model" (hereinafter referred to as the "race wheel model") has been actively explored in this regard.

Statistics from the China Rubber Industry Association show that China is now the world’s largest tire production and export country. In 2008, tire production reached 350 million, of which 40% were exported and about 1/3 were exported to the United States. According to Song Jun, deputy general manager of Race Wheels, the trade disputes in the world tire industry did not start with this "tire special security case." Actually, since 2001, there have been Australia, Brazil, Peru, Egypt, Argentina, Turkey, and South Africa. Many countries, such as Mexico, the United States, and India, initiated anti-dumping investigations on China's tire export products.

Shandong is a big province of rubber tires in China, especially in the surrounding areas of Qingdao. It has formed an industrial cluster centered on rubber production and has obvious geographical advantages in talents, information, logistics, transportation, and procurement. Among them, Qingdao University of Technology is known as the "Huangpu Military Academy" in the rubber tire industry. Most technical backbones and management decision-makers in China's rubber tire companies are students of this school. Qingdao Race Wheels Co., Ltd. has played a geographic advantage and has organized a group of professors, engineering technicians, and senior management and technical personnel who have long been engaged in rubber education and engineering in China. They are committed to promoting the upgrading of China's rubber tire industry and overall technological progress.

In recent years, Sailun has focused on the entire tire industry chain, using advanced technology to break through in key areas, integrating production, learning and research, and creating a unique “race mode” to open up universities (talent cultivation, theoretical research, and new materials research and development)-equipment and information. Technology--Raw Materials--Technology R&D and Output--Tire Product Manufacturing--Market Network--The complete industrial chain of used tires has laid a good foundation for the promotion of the tire industry.

Song Jun, deputy general manager of the Saihua company, said that the current "race mode" has already had the leading competitiveness in China: the first in the international tire industry to use informatization technology to control the entire production process, the exclusive batch production of RFID chip tires; built a domestic Industry technology platform - The National Tire Technology and Control Engineering Technology Research Center's scientific research and demonstration base and the Shandong Rubber Industry Technology Center relying on the unit, is the largest radial tire technology export enterprise in China. The company has applied for 48 national patents and participated in the formulation of 6 National standards and 6 industry standards; recognized as China's first demonstration base for the recycling of tire resources; the 2007 race wheel brand has become one of the top ten “Chinese famous brands” of tires.

The "Racing Mode" RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) intelligent tire identification system is the only domestic and internationally advanced tire "electronic ID card" system developed by Race Wheels, which will push the information technology content of China's tire products to the international advanced level. According to the company's technical personnel, this chip can record the key information of the tire's "full life cycle" and achieve the following objectives: write important information on the entire tire production process for future traceability; implant the chip into the tire and ensure consistent tire quality Sex; provides the basis for the accident determination during use. At present, the first generation of products have been put into trials in small batches. The second generation of chips is being researched and developed. It can collect and transmit various environmental parameters of the tires in the driving process, which can be used as an early warning and similar aircraft "black box".

The "race mode" uses new materials to partially replace natural rubber, breaking through the raw material bottleneck of rubber tires. Natural rubber is the most important raw material for tires. Due to the constraints of climate and other conditions, only Southeast Asia has become the main production base for natural rubber. The number is limited, and prices fluctuate greatly. How to break through the bottleneck of natural rubber is a major problem in this industry. Race Wheels will apply the new material, isoprene rubber, to tires, which can replace 30% of natural rubber without changing the traditional tire production process. At the same time, it can extend the service life of tires by 50% and save 2.5 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. It has broad development prospects and huge economic and social benefits.

The "race mode" has taken a big step forward in tire retreading and the disposal of used tires, pushing for a circular economy. China has become a world leader in tire production and consumption. However, China’s natural rubber resources are extremely scarce. 73% of the annual demand depends on imports, but “a large number of resources are developed, large-scale production of products, large-scale consumption, and large amounts of waste are generated.” The article has been abandoned by developed countries, and has developed at the cost of overdrawing resources and harming the environment. How to recycle, reduce, and harmless used tires is not only related to environmental protection as an important social issue, but also an important prerequisite for ensuring the sustainable development of China's national economy. Race Wheels currently masters world-class tire retreading and used tire processing technologies. Its independently developed annular tread is currently only produced in Italy by the Italian Maregoni. Its tire retreading X-ray and hologram detection technologies It is also the world leader. In 2009, the racing wheel tyre retreading factory was officially put into operation. At present, the racing wheel company is setting up a tyre renovation point along the road, which will also play an important role in ensuring traffic safety and reducing traffic accidents.

Fan Rende, president of the China Rubber Industry Association, expressed concern about the “race mode”. He analyzed that the “industrial chain circular economy development model” of Race Wheels broke through the development pattern and bottleneck of the traditional industries, and information management improved the traditional industries in an all-round way. The core competitiveness and the production, teaching and research operation model have established a first-class R&D platform. This has positive significance for accelerating the adjustment of China's tire industry structure and breaking the tire industry dilemma in China.

It is understood that Race Wheels is currently working on the integration of the industry and plans to develop into the largest and world-class tire enterprise within three years.
