Environmental effects of manufacturing
Environmental impacts of tyre manufacturing include emissions to natural waters and sewage systems, emissions to the air (VOC, odour and dust), noise and waste. Waste and solvent emissions, as well as unpleasant odours in some locations, represent the most significant burden on the environment.

Green tyres
The birch-leaf symbol and the text "Naturally Nokian Tyres" indicate that our products are environmentally friendly; for example, made using purified oils only and no toxic chemicals at all. The birch-leaf symbol is used on tyre and tread labels, as well as various marketing materials, such as brochures and posters.
