Sailun EcoPoint³ Targets Sustainability and Performance

Adopting the world's first synthetic rubber liquid-phase mixing technology reduces rolling resistance, improves wet skid resistance and wear resistant performance, making driving safer, more durable and energy-saving.

EcoPoint³, the “liquid gold”, is a major scientific and technological innovation achieved by Sailun Group's ten years' hard work. It adopts the world's first liquid-phase mixing technology to break through the technical bottleneck "magic triangle", three major properties of tires - rolling resistance, wet skid performance, and wear resistance - cannot be improved at the same time, thus realizing a milestone technological progress in the world's rubber tire industry. The technology completely overturned the rubber industry for over a century has been used in the rubber and filler physical dry mixing method, known as the "rubber tire industry's fourth milestone technology revolution.

 

 

Compared with other brand tires' traditional rubber mixing methods, EcoPoint³'s liquid phase mixing technology can further increase the silica loading in compounds. Since the production energy consumption of silica is 80% lower than that of carbon black, and unlike carbon black, silica is non-fossil energy source, thus, production process with this revolutionary method of mixing reduces the energy consumption and carbon emission from its roots. At the same time, this new mixing technology greatly improves the dispersion of fillers and results in better overall performances of the products.

 

 

The EcoPoint³ technology also represents a breakthrough in green and low-carbon tire development, from the selection of raw materials, manufacturing, and product life cycle, while significantly reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions.

 

 

The Liquid Gold tires has been proven with excellent fuel-saving, wear resistance, safe and comfortable performance, which has been verified in a number of domestic and international field tests and road tests held by joint logistics enterprises, and has been awarded professional certificates such as China Rubber Industry Association's "Tire Labeling Classification Standard" Grade 3A, TUV Rheinland's "Energy Saving Pioneer" and so on.

 

 

In 2016, this technology was reported on the cover of Tire Technology International, an authoritative magazine in Europe, which said that "this technology can help China's tire industry achieve leapfrog development and reach the international leading level". And this magazine named EcoPoint³ as "liqiud gold".

 

 

In May 2022, international authoritative third-party testing organizations such as TUV SUD, AUTOBILD, and IFV conducted professional tests on a variety of Sailun's liquid gold tire products. All the tested tires showed amazingly excellent performance, reaching or even surpassing the international tire brands - four of this tire products obtained TUV MARK certificates at the same time, which is the best achievement of Chinese tire enterprises in the world's rubber tire field.
