Brand History

The Nankang Rubber Tire corporate logo has been in use for over 55 years. In response to increasing global competition in the tire industry and the trend of corporate reforms, Nankang undertook a review of its corporate identity system (CIS) in 2010. Through this new project, the company aims to build a new brand image for Nankang Tire that meets international standards.
