In 2023, Bridgestone road safety initiatives impacted nearly 100,000 people in the communities we're part of throughout the world. That number is the result of many standout initiatives, including our "Sicurezza of the road" programme. In partnership with the Italian Red Cross – and made possible by Bridgestone volunteers – we provided road safety workshops to 5,000 school students, covering everything from vehicle control to tyre maintenance. It's no surprise that 2023 was also the year that we launched the Bridgestone Road Safety Program (BRSP). The BRSP unites everything we’re doing in the global road safety arena as we help the fightback against our big road safety problem.

Since 2008, we've been developing Bridgestone’s “Airfree Concept”, a next-generation tyre that doesn’t require air inflation. With no air pressure management required, the air-free tyre reduces maintenance demands. Plus, in the case of our Airfree Concept tyre, it's also recyclable – thanks to resin-made spokes and tread rubber, and a retreadable surface. This year, our air-free tyre is being tested on public roads in Tokyo, Japan, for the first time. It's a significant milestone on not only its own journey, but also Bridgestone’s as we work toward a more sustainable future of mobility.
