Who is Michelin?

Michelin is a multinational French Tire company based in Clermont, Ferrand, France. The company started in 1889 and initially was a rubber company. Things turned when a cyclist stumbled upon their factory and needed to repair his tires. Bike tires during those times were glued to the rim and took forever to repair. So Michelin saw the opportunity and created the first removal Pneumatic tire. Today, that same principle is what’s being used in all tires.

Revolutionizing the Tire Industry

Michelin is known as a key innovator and played a big role in revolutionizing the way tires are made. They introduce a tire that when punctured, would run on a special foam lining which what we know today as run-flat tires, and was the first company to introduce Radial tires. These tires perform and handle better compared to the traditional way tires are made.

Motorsport Participation

The company is also actively participating in various motorsport events. Some of these races include Rally Racing, Moto GP, and some of the most prestigious races in the world such as Formula 1 and Lemans 24 Hours.
