Key Market Driver

The increasing demand for replaced tires globally is notably driving market growth. The market is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing demand for tire replacement in the automotive industry. Tires are subjected to continuous wear and tear during vehicle operation, and their lifespan can vary depending on factors such as terrain and driving conditions. For instance, while original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tires for passenger cars may last up to 50,000 miles, actual tire life can be significantly less. Consumers have reported replacing tires as early as 20,000 miles, even for new tires marketed to last 50,000 miles or more. To meet the rising demand for tire replacement, tire building machinery manufacturers are focusing on producing high-quality machinery that can efficiently produce tires with longer lifespans. This includes advancements in compounding, mixing, shaping, and curing processes. High-temperature and high-pressure curing processes are essential to ensure the durability and strength of tire casings, liners, belts, treads, and inner liners. Modern tire building machinery utilizes computerized systems for precise control over dimensions and mixing ratios, resulting in consistent tire quality. Technological advancements such as strip winding systems, cutting, extrusion, cooling units, and multi-extrusion lines have reduced the need for manual labor and increased production output. The tire building machinery market caters to the production of rubber tires for automotive applications, as well as metal tires for railcars, locomotives, and other heavy-duty vehicles.
