Our history
From its very beginnings, it is obvious what Dunlop set out to do, to deliver a better driving experience for drivers and a better riding experience for riders.
In 1888 Dunlop’s founder, John Boyd Dunlop, was watching his young son riding his tricycle on solid rubber tyres over the cobbled ground. In trying to provide his son with a smoother ride and better handling Dunlop took the tricycle, wrapped its wheels in thin rubber sheets, glued them together and inflated them with a football pump. In this way he developed the first air cushioning system in history, laying the foundation for the first pneumatic tyre.
Dunlop immediately patented his idea and started to develop his invention into a commercial venture, founding what quickly became known as the Dunlop Pneumatic Tire Co. Ltd. The first Dunlop plant opened in Chinatown, Melbourne in 1893. In twenty years, Dunlop had made the solid tyre obsolete and grown from pioneer to the first global multinational tyre company.
Where we are today
By the start of World War II, Dunlop was the byword for success in a range of activities, not only tyres where it reigned supreme on and off the racetrack, but also brakes, wheels, golf and tennis balls, flooring, and other industrial rubber products. In 1984 came the consolidation of Dunlop’s European and US tyre operations with its Japanese business, as part of the Sumitomo group. In 1999 Sumitomo and The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company decided on a global alliance, becoming the world’s biggest tyre producer. This continued until 2015 at which time Goodyear undertook ownership in Australia, Europe, New Zealand, and North America.
