Dunlop Tires

With a heritage spanning more than 125 years, the name Dunlop has become synonymous with the industry-leading technical development of tires and a rich history of racing involvement. Lessons learned in motorsports translate into better consumer tire technology, and Dunlop has been at the forefront of the development of four-wheel and two-wheel motorsport tires, both on the track and off the road. 

Funnily enough, the story does not start on four wheels or even on two, but on three. In 1888 Dunlop’s founder, John Boyd Dunlop watched his young son riding his tricycle on solid rubber tires over the cobbled ground. He noticed that his little boy was not going very fast and did not seem very comfortable. In trying to provide his son with a smoother ride and better handling, Dunlop took the tricycle, wrapped its wheels in thin rubber sheets, glued them together, and inflated them with a football pump. He developed the first air cushioning system in history and laid the foundation for the first pneumatic tire.

In 1984 came the consolidation of Dunlop’s European and US tire operations with its Japanese business, as part of the Sumitomo group. In 1999 Sumitomo and The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company decided on a global alliance, becoming the world’s biggest tire producer. Dunlop in Europe is now part of that joint venture encompassing six companies and is embedded within Goodyear Dunlop Tires B.V.
