Bridgestone Corporation is investing 10.2 billion yen (￡68.0 million) in "cutting-edge equipment" for certain facilities at its Shimonoseki plant in Japan, the company's flagship production base for tyres used in mining and construction applications. Installation of this equipment is scheduled to begin next year and be completed by the end of 2025. According to Bridgestone, the installation of cutting-edge equipment at the Shimonoseki plant will be "an important part of strengthening and expanding the mining tyre and solutions business as called for by the Group's Mid-Term Business Plan." The new equipment will boost the Shimonoseki plant's productivity and enhance product quality, and Bridgestone says it will also make the production system even safer and better prepared for emergencies or disasters.
