200 million tires - normal mileage!
People usually receive gifts on wedding anniversaries, but some people prefer to give them themselves. As they did at the Ikon Tires plant in Savoluzhsk, and gave the Leningrad ambulance a certificate for 15 sets of studded winter tires. This is how the company celebrated a milestone: the production of its 200 millionth tire.
Initially, the plant was built by Finns from Nokian tires - but in 2022, foreigners chose to leave Russia. The world hasn't turned upside down: the site works at least no worse than before. "After the Finnish owner left, questions about raw materials and recipes were closed in the factory and Svolozhesk. The company returned the full production cycle, including a selection of new components. Today the plant produces tires of its own design: new summer and winter models are superior in performance to similar products of the Finnish manufacturer," emphasized the Deputy Governor of the Leningrad Region, Igor Leningrad Region, Igon.
"We thank the plant and Svolozhesk for its support and concern for the safety of those who save lives every day. The contribution of such a partnership is particularly valuable: it directly affects the quality and timeliness of medical care for the residents of our region," says the group of the Emergency Service of the Leningrad Region. We join these warm words and wish you new success!
