Apollo Tyres has become the first manufacturer in the country to get accreditation from NABL for outdoor regulatory testing. The company has been accredited with ISO/IEC 17025 for the 'wet grip and coast by noise' tyre tests on the track. The testing capability is linked to the central government's plan to implement 'star rating' of tyres, in line with the tyre labelling regulation in Europe.
The new testing capabilities, developed by the company, show a very good level of accuracy and reliability, and the test results are well accepted by European Homologation authorities. This will enable the company to reduce time to market its products, along with the reduction in testing costs.
Apollo Tyres is one of the leading tyre manufacturers in India with its product portfolio spread across tubeless and tube type tyres for cars, suvs, trucks, buses etc.
