Tire Chemicals Market Overview
Tire chemicals refer to various types of chemical which are utilized in the manufacturing process of tires. Tire chemicals enhance the durability, handling, resistance and grip of the tires. Various types of tire chemicals such as synthetic rubber, natural rubber, carbon black, crude oil and others offers optimal solutions to intensify durability, grip and other feature of tires.
Market Size and Forecast
Global tire chemicals market is expected to grow at a steady CAGR over the forecast period 2017-2024. In terms of volume, tire market accounted for 2380 Million units in 2016. This has intensified the demand for tire chemicals all across the globe. Further, the global tire chemicals market is anticipated to exceed 43.5 Million tons in terms of volume by the end of 2024. The rising sale of automotive across the globe is envisioned to bolster the growth of global tire chemicals market in the next few years.
Geographically, Asia-Pacific accounted for the highest market share in terms of volume in the overall global tire chemicals market. This can be attributed towards various factors such as presence of automotive industries and large number of tire manufacturers in the region. However, oversupply of tire chemicals such as natural rubber and synthetic rubber in the region is predicted to decrease the growth of Asia-Pacific tire chemicals market. This excess supply of tire chemicals is declining the demand for tire chemicals. However, government involvement in Asia-Pacific countries is predicted to trigger the growth of tire chemicals market. For instance, Chinese government is encouraging Chinese tire manufacturers and associations through various set of standards and guidelines.
Asia-Pacific is anticipated to be trailed by North America and Europe. North America and Europe markets are expected to witness moderate demand due to the stringent environmental protection laws and regulations to curb the pollution. However, the positive growth of automotive industries in these regions is envisioned to bolster the growth of global tire chemicals market. Further, these countries are promoting the growth and development of green industries.
Middle East & Africa region tire chemical market is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Rising demand for automobiles and increasing purchasing power of the consumers is anticipated to supplement the growth of tire chemicals market in the region.
