European tire labelling effective as of November 2012.

Minimum thresholds for rolling resistance & wet grip as of November 2014 in Europe.

INTRODUCTION: Trends for Passenger Cars in Europe

Tire manufacturers have mainly optimized tire wet grip safety standards to A-B rating.

Fuel efficiency characteristics were balanced to ratings of C-E.

Winter tires have generally a lower rolling resistance performance.

More stringent rolling resistance standards d f 2020


are expected as of 2020.

There is a High Demand & an Improvement Potential For Fuel Efficient Tires in Europe !

CONCLUSIONS & SUMMARY

Increasing demand for low rolling resistance –high grip – high abrasion resistance tires caused by environmentally driven legislation.

Trinseo is successfully continuing stage-wise polymer grade development.

New Trinseo developmental grades address current market needs.

Trinseo provides market volume through di d ti biliti


expanding production capabilities.

Extended TRINSEO Synthetic Rubber product portfolio indicates short implementation timeline for new SSBR grades.
