Technologies

PureGripCompound – The advanced new compound
Based on activated silica compounds, this technology was originally intended as a performance level compound, but after intensive development at our Korbach Research and Development Department Facility, an advanced new compound with outstanding grip and cross-country properties was developed. This new rubber mix, given the self-explanatory name “PureGrip”, is ranked just behind our BlackChili Compound and is being used in our performance products both in the road and mountain bike sectors. Whilst providing great grip, it is also long-lasting and highly durable – both characteristics of Continental tires, which are exclusively manufactured in the factory in Hefei (Asia).

NyTechBreaker – Nylon fabric in the performance sector
The new NyTech Puncture Protection has been developed based on the proven Continental Safety System Breaker. Its nylon fabric makes it resistant to punctures and cuts like Kevlar reinforced high strength fibers, but offers lower rolling resistance and reduced weight. The NyTech breaker sits between the SafetySystem and the PolyX Breaker® as a more effective puncture protection casing in the performance sector.
