Key Market Dynamics
The global off-the-road tire market trends is growing due to several factors, such as increase in aftermarket demand, growth in industrialization, and increase in farm mechanization. However, the availability of low-cost tiers in the aftermarket and extreme weather conditions restrain the development of the market. In addition, retreading of OTR tires and strengthening emission regulations will provide ample opportunities for the market's development during off-the-road tire market forecast period.
In recent years, there has been an increase in instances of farm mechanization due to a scarce labor force, an increase in labor wages and the growing need to increase productivity in farms. For instance, in India, approximately 50% of the population is employed in agriculture, providing the country’s income and raw materials for numerous industries. India’s farming contributes 20% to the nation’s GDP. The Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare provided a thorough briefing on the status of the modernization of the farming sector in India. The country has been strongly focusing on farm mechanization in recent years due to rapid urbanization leading to a reduction in the labor workforce. Similarly, many developing nations around the world are shifting towards farm modernization, which is anticipated to drive the market for off the road tires market positively.
Similarly, there has been a growing demand for heavy-duty vehicles and construction equipment such as excavators, loaders, bulldozers, haul trucks, and drilling rigs to carry out large-scale excavation and construction operations due to growth in construction and mining activity and rise in industrialization. As there is growing construction and mining activity, the tires used in these vehicles are highly prone to wear and tear and thus require regular maintenance and replacement of off-the-road tires.
However, the off-the-road tire market faces challenges due to the availability of low-cost aftermarket tires, which is hindering its market growth. Low-cost unbranded tires create high competition rivalry among the companies operating in the global market. Low-cost aftermarket tires utilized low-quality materials to cut down on costs and increase their revenue. However, there is growing demand for aftermarket tires in developing countries, this creates steep competition for global companies operating in the market; thus, hindering the market growth.
