Michelin’s Testing & Multi-Purpose Facility for North America

When viewed from above, Michelin Laurens Proving Grounds (MLPG) in South Carolina looks like a large motorsports complex. But in reality it is a vast 3,500-acre scientific laboratory devoted to the research and development of tires and vehicles. Due to its size, infrastructure and support services, MLPG is also an excellent choice for corporate and other group events.

With all of these resources available, our customers can focus exclusively on accomplishing their objectives in the minimum amount of time.
