Sailun Group, has made history by becoming the first Chinese tyre company to join the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), a worldwide effort promoting sustainable business practices.
The UNGC, launched in 2000, encourages companies worldwide to follow ten principles focusing on human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption. This aligns with the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals, with over 24,000 companies and non-businesses across 160 countries already participating.

The company has been actively involved in eco-friendly initiatives, in sync with China's goals to reduce carbon emissions significantly by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
Eco-friendly Innovation

These tyres use groundbreaking materials, cutting energy consumption by 40% compared to international standards by replacing traditional carbon black with renewable silica nanofillers. These tyres meet the highest EU regulations and significantly reduce carbon footprints, earning them prestigious certifications.
Commitment Beyond Business

Externally, Sailun has contributed generously to causes such as COVID-19 relief, supporting earthquake-affected areas, and funding educational institutions.
