The jury of the German Award for Sustainability Projects has recognized Continental’s UltraContact NXT as one of the best sustainability projects in Germany. With a share of up to 65 percent renewable, recycled and ISCC PLUS mass balance-certified materials, it is the company’s most sustainable tire to date. The UltraContact NXT has already won several awards since its market launch, including the Sustainability Award at the Swiss Automotive Show Innovation Awards 2023, the International Design Award 2023 and the German Innovation Award 2024.
“We are delighted to receive this prestigious award. It confirms our commitment to developing sustainable solutions for the mobility of the future,” says Maria Hanczuch, Head of Program Management Private Mobility Tires at Continental. “The UltraContact NXT is the first serial-produced passenger car tire with such a high proportion of sustainable materials. We will continue to develop innovative products and technologies that help drive sustainability in the automotive industry.”
