When it comes to tires, there is no way around Dunlop. The brand is one of the largest and best-known tire manufacturers in the world and stands for top quality, state-of-the-art technology and decades of racing experience. Whether on the race track, on the road or under the toughest conditions - Dunlop tires are always a safe choice. But how did Dunlop become one of the leading tire manufacturers and what makes the brand so special?
From an idea to a global corporation - the history of Dunlop
The Dunlop success story began back in 1888 - with an ingenious idea. John Boyd Dunlop, a Scottish vet, wanted to improve his son's hard and uncomfortable tires. He developed the first air-filled tire, which quickly caused a sensation. The idea not only revolutionized cycling, but also laid the foundation for modern tire technology.
The motorsport industry soon recognized Dunlop's potential. As early as the 1900s, vehicles with Dunlop tires were on the racetracks - with great success. Over the decades, the company continued to grow and became one of the most important tire manufacturers in the world. Today, Dunlop is represented in almost every sector: from motorcycles and cars to industrial vehicles and even aircraft.
Dunlop and two-wheelers - perfect grip for over 100 years
Dunlop has been a fixture in the motorcycle and scooter market for over a century. Through constant further development and intensive research, the company has developed tires that are perfectly adapted to the needs of two-wheelers. Whether sporty performance, maximum comfort or durability - Dunlop offers the right tire for every rider.
Dunlop tires are known for their excellent wet and dry grip, stable performance in curves and high mileage. The engineers rely on innovative technologies such as:
- Multi-Tread Compound (MT): a special rubber compound that ensures optimum grip in corners while the tread lasts longer.
- Jointless Belt Construction (JLB): A special construction that brings more stability and comfort - perfect for scooter riders.
- Advanced Tread Design: Tread designs that drain water efficiently and thus improve wet grip.
Dunlop has set standards in racing in particular. Numerous world championship titles, victories in the most famous endurance races and the status as official tire supplier in various racing series speak for themselves.
