9 April 2019: Muscat, Oman: Committed towards environmental protection, Giti Tire strives towards making a positive contribution towards a greener world. All Giti factories comply with strict local environmental and manufacturing laws and regulations, from design, construction, to production. In addition, they have obtained national certifications of quality management, environmental management, and occupation health and safety management systems.

As a global manufacturer with eight factories located in China, Indonesia and USA, Giti Tire has a strong environmental production focus. In addition to improving automation, reducing waste, and improving use of resources, Giti Tire also focuses on constant environmental improvement in each of the production centres.

In addition to having full ISO 14001 environmental certifications, all Giti Tire factories use a unified GES manufacturing management system, combining quality management, environmental protection and safe production, to form a high-performance and standardised system of production and operation, besides quality-control management.

The Singapore-based Giti has built a world-class standardised tire manufacturing process, integrating high-standard manpower, raw materials, equipment and craftsmanship, to create better and safer tires, with continuous innovation.

More than 70% of the production equipment, logistics, and storage in the newly-built Giti U.S. factory are fully automated, significantly improving the production efficiency of the assembly line, reducing and controlling the pollutant emissions.

While achieving rapid growth of business value, Giti has also been insisting on sustainable development. The company is dedicated to the development of energy saving technologies and products. More importantly, Giti Tire puts emphasis on the tire manufacturing process and strives to minimise the environmental impact of tire products by reducing emissions, wastewater, and waste materials.

Giti owns a completely integrated green supply chain system, adheres to the policy of environmental protection for all employees to maintain cleaner production, and relies on the three principles of reduction, reuse and recycling, to decrease environmental pollution, reduce waste emissions, and improve resource utilisation to the maximum level.

Altogether, Giti’s efforts have already resulted in a 47% decrease in fresh water usage and 22% reduction in coal usage between 2011 and 2017, as well as increased efficiency through automation and conservation. In addition, Giti Tire has planted numerous trees and utilised other conservation efforts in its local communities, to help make a greener planet and a better future for children.

Giti Tire has invested millions of dollars in environmental protection projects, as well as in improving production safety projects for its tire manufacturing plants. The company, in a partnership agreement with Conservation International (CI), pledged USD $1 million for its conservation projects. Additional funds were allocated for projects in Indonesia, China and other regions of the world. These initiatives have enabled Giti Tire to conserve about 100 years of carbon emissions that would result from coal burning at Giti Tire plants.

Giti Tire also sponsored another USD 500,000 to deepen support for CI Conservation initiatives and enable programme progress for future success. Giti Tire funded programme activities focusing on freshwater initiatives, marine initiatives, zoonotic diseases, and China forest standards to support environmental protection and sustainable development.
