Is Nokian Tyres vegan?
While not officially certified vegan, the brand heavily utilizes plant-based oils and bio-materials instead of animal-derived stearates.
Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.
