Facts & Figures
R&D in Europe
The global R&D centre “Hankook Techno- dome” functions as a central hub for Hankook’s global R&D infrastructure and connects not only the regional technical centres: ATC (American Technical Center), CTC (China Technical Center), JTO (Japan Technical Office) and the Europe Technical Center (ETC) in Hanover in Germany, but also the “Hankook Technotrac” in Ivalo, Finland. This provides winter testing as well as further premises (Idiada, Spain) for summer tyre testing. With a development centre in Germany, high-end production and stateof- the-art indoor testing in Hungary, as well as its very own winter test facility in Finland, Hankook takes an integrated approach to tyre development and production in Europe.
