GRI has developed an eco-friendly version of its Ulitmate XT solid tire by replacing petroleum-based oil with natural oil, which is carbon neutral and renewable.

GRI says the tire has the capability to run on all surface conditions including, indoor, outdoor, low temperature, high temperature, wet and dry conditions. The company says it will enhance its strategy of manufacturing high-performance “green” solid rubber tires that result in reduced environmental pollution and increased efficiency.

The Premium Plus Ultimate XT solid tire is made from top-grade Sri Lankan rubber and engineered to exacting standards, featuring a modern tread design that delivers on low rolling resistance and high run time, thus ensuring longer tire life and conservation of energy, GRI says.

“All strategic and tactical decisions made by GRI are weighed against its impact on the environment. GRI’s policy is to drive sustainability along with developing premium Specialty Tires. A key goal at GRI is to contribute to the world that is sustainable, and by doing so, GRI takes into consideration the well-being of not only the current global community, but also the generations to come,” says Dr. Mahesha Ranasoma, CEO of GRI.
