Yokohama Rubber confirmed its participation in IRC2026 AICHI Technology Exhibition

The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd. announced that it would participate in the IRC2026 AICHI Rubber and Elastomer Technology Exhibition held in Aichi Sky Expo, Changshui City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan from November 3 to November 6, 2026. The technology exhibition will be held concurrently with the 2026 International Rubber Conference (IRC2026) for a total of four days. According to the source information, the IRC2026 conference will bring together scientists and engineers from around the world engaged in research on rubber and elastomers. The theme of this year’s Yokohama Rubber Exhibition is “Future Rubber Technology towards Sustainability”.

Significance for the Tire and Rubber Industry

The IRC series of conferences is an important international technology exchange platform in the field of rubber and elastomers. Yokohama Rubber, as a tire manufacturing enterprise, participated in the conference, indicating that the linkage between tire technology research and development and rubber material science is still deepening.

. From the perspective of column attention, such technology exhibitions usually involve topics such as tire structure and formula, rubber additives, and processing technology, but the source does not disclose specific exhibits, technical papers, or formula details of Yokohama Rubber. In the context of promoting sustainable development in the tire and rubber industry, the rubber additive system, including anti-aging agents, antioxidants, vulcanization systems, as well as the application of white carbon black and reinforcing fillers, is a key link in formula design that affects performance and durability. IRC2026, with the theme of “Future Rubber Technology for Sustainable Development,” provides an opportunity for tire companies, rubber additive suppliers, and research institutions to exchange ideas on material formulations, mixing and vulcanization processes, rubber aging and weather resistance. However, the source did not specify which additives or filler technologies will be discussed at the exhibition, and the relevant technical content is yet to be officially announced.

Information boundary

Currently, the confirmed information is limited to the exhibition name, time, location, concurrent conferences, and Yokohama Rubber’s exhibition theme.

. The source did not provide a list of exhibits, speech topics, partners, or any technical data for Yokohama Rubber, nor did it mention tire products, rubber additive formulas, or testing standards. If there is any official exhibition information released in the future, further attention can be paid to its reference value for the application direction of tire formula and rubber additives.
