Dublin, Ireland-based Research and Markets has
released a new report entitled Trends in the
Global Tire Industry 2011.
The 279-page publication provides an in-depth
market overview and looks at the internal and
external forces currently driving the
industry.
The report goes on to examine tire labeling,
retail and service, key profit opportunities
and technologies. A region-by-region analysis
is included along with detailed company
analyses of all the major industry players,
covering 28 tire producers, according to senior
manager Laura Wood.
“Since our last report in 2008, the world of
tires has changed radically,” she says. “It has
moved swiftly from bust to boom. The current
picture is of strong demand, shortage of
capacity and rising raw materials prices as
shortages bite,” adds Wood.
“The recession of 2008-2009 significantly
accelerated the steady move in the balance of
power in the tire industry to Asia, away from
the U.S. and Europe,” she notes.
