Delinte belongs to Qingdao Sentury Tire, the company formerly known as Sentaida Group. Sentury is listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange under code 002984 and has its head office in Jimo district, Qingdao. Besides car and truck tyres, the company entered the aircraft tyre market in 2013. Modern Tire Dealer reported in November 2016 that Sentury was producing the Delinte, Landsail and Sentury brands plus private labels for other distributors.
Sentury opened a plant in Rayong, Thailand in 2015 with a planned capacity of 12 million consumer tyres a year. A third plant near Tangier, Morocco broke ground on 21 October 2023 and started production on 30 September 2024. Its target is 12 million tyres a year. A US factory announced for LaGrange, Georgia in 2016 was put on indefinite hold in July 2019.
