The Tyre Collective turns 5!
Half a decade of driving change on tyre pollution—cheers to 5 years! In the past 6 months, we became a certified B Corp and were named one of Europe’s top clean mobility startups by the European Startup Prize for Mobility. Now, we are making final improvements to our devices in preparation for a 2026 product launch, and have some exciting partnerships in the pipeline. We’re raising our next funding round, have 40% committed, and are looking for VCs, angels, family offices, and impact funds to join our journey.
Back on the Road
This summer, we hit new milestones: We completed our first trial in the construction industry with Ringway, deploying our devices on 8 vehicles across 2 depots. We took our first spin with a city through our partnership with the Eurométropole of Strasbourg, united by an ambitious goal: to reduce particulate matter (PM) pollution and make our cities healthier places to live.
Both pilots were made possible by EIT Urban Mobility, an initiative of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union.
Raising Awareness
From Birmingham and Prague, we are on a mission to raise awareness – speaking at Emissions Analytics’ Tyre Emissions Conference, joining the Terra Carta community as Design Lab winners, and igniting conversations at Ringway’s Innovation Inspiration Day.
