Tannus Tires: Puncture Resistant & ECO Friendly

has evolved and is no longer an option, but an almost obligatory responsibility. More and more people are looking for environmentally responsible alternatives in all areas, and so are brands. But sometimes, the difference between the purpose of the words "green", "sustainable" or "eco-friendly" and acting in accordance with its significance, is quite large. At Tannus we take this commitment to the environment as a fundamental part of our work.

Tannus tires for more sustainable mobility

At Tannus we are committed to sustainability. with innovative products that not only offer the best cycling experience, but also protect our planet. Our responsible mission is to take care of the roots of who we are to continue to enjoy our future, whether on the top of the mountain or riding on the asphalt of the cities. Because cycling and sustainable mobility are indispensable for a sustainable world. nature friendly. Today we tell you why Tannus is the most sustainable bike wheel and an option eco friendly much more environmentally friendly.

Tannus puncture-proof tires, a more environmentally friendly and responsible option

In 2019 the National Geographic published an article Did you know that approximately 30% of these microplastics are present in our seas? The tire (and bicycle tire) industry is highly polluting and generates large amounts of waste. In this scenario, Tannus is a revolution. eco friendly, y is not only an innovation in anti-puncture technology.

Tannus puncture-resistant tires are made of a world-wide patented material with high durability called Aither 1.1and leaves behind the more polluting traditional materials and harmful to the environment, a breakthrough in bicycle tire manufacturing. But that's not all. Thanks to its durability and puncture-proof nature, it guarantees more than 6,000km of use, triple that of a traditional clincher+tube system. Multiplying the life of your bike tires by 3 is an ecological revolution.

Did you know that...?

Tannus Tires reduce consumption by 80% : no inner tubes, no tires, no maintenance, no constant consumption.

Infographic explaining "10,000,000 tons of bicycle tires & inner tubes are discarded every year. The equivalent of filling the Empire State Building 8 times.

Why are Tannus bike wheels more environmentally friendly?

The main reason why Tannus is a more environmentally friendly bike wheel is the reduction of consumption, in addition to its recyclable materials and manufacturing process. The life cycle of a traditional tire is much shorter due to wear and tear and, mostly, punctures and cuts. This means more production and waste. The generation of waste as a result of air chambers is also enormous. Tannus Tires do not need inner tubes and do not have to be replaced by a new one due to cuts and punctures. The Tannus Armour reduces punctures (and consumption) of inner tubes by 90%.

Longer life without punctures = less consumption of tubes, tires and waste generation.

But it goes beyond that... Discover why the Tannus are the most sustainable bike tire choice!

REDUCTION IN CONSUMPTION WITH TANNUS

The Aither 1.1 guarantees +6000km of durability, without maintenance or spare parts. With a service life of up to 10,000km, Tannus tires minimize waste generation and tire consumption. This long durability significantly reduces the environmental impact and makes it a greener option.

Using 1 Tannus tire is equivalent to using 3 traditional tires and 8 inner tubes.

EFFICIENT MANUFACTURING

Tannus follows a sustainable 100% manufacturing process free of heavy metals and other highly polluting materials that saves more energy. Due to its simple structure, no harmful materials are used and fewer components are needed compared to traditional covers, which use textile, threads, steel or other metals, tubes, valves, rim tape, sealants... In addition to inorganic fillers, heavy materials, sulfur, phosphorous...

Tannus Tires only use Aither 1.1® and its Anchor Pins®.

Summary of the sustainable advantages that make Tannus bike wheels environmentally friendly: Reduction of consumption, efficient manufacturing, responsible packaging, 100% recyclable in materials

RESPONSIBLE PACKAGING

Tannus distributes all products with sustainable packaging. The distribution is done with 100% recycled cardboard boxes.plastic-free, to reduce footprint and environmental impact.

100% RECYCLABLE MATERIALS

The service life of the Tannus goes beyond its original purpose, as the Aither 1.1 compound is used in the flexible materials industry.. This means that after their useful life, Tannus are cleaned of impurities and used in the manufacture of shoe soles, sandals, running tracks, playgrounds....

The Pins® anchors are made of pure plastic, which is used as raw material for the manufacture of plastic components. as bottles, containers, toys, kitchen utensils... Being pure plastic, it can be used in engineering plastic parts and components.

Tannus Tires and Tannus Tire Pins are 100% recyclable and have a second life.

SETTING THE STANDARD FOR THE SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY OF THE FUTURE

Achieve a sustainable urban mobility is key to reducing the environmental impact of our citiesThe bicycle, as an energy-efficient and energy-saving alternative, plays a key role in this change. Opting for solutions such as Tannus tires is a step towards cleaner and more efficient transportation. Cycling is all well and good, but doing so while reducing resource consumption and waste generation promotes an even greener and more accessible future.

Tannus sets the tone for the future of sustainable urban mobility in cities in bike sharing systems such as Bicing or BiciMAD. These bikesharings have managed to reduce tire and inner tube consumption and waste generation, as well as the consumption of polluting transport resources for the collection and replacement of flat tires. With Tannus they are driving the change towards more sustainable cities, where mobility is not only more accessible and efficient, but also environmentally friendly. We recommend our article to find out how Bicing BCN avoids 35,000 punctures a year and its consequent generation of waste.
