Retread is a re-manufacturing process for tires that replace the tread on worn tires. Retreading is applied to casings of consumed tires that have been inspected and repaired. There are two main processes used for retreading tires, called Mold Cure and Pre Cure. Compared with new tires, the cost-effectiveness of retreaded tires has led to accelerated sales. In addition, retreaded tires are environmentally friendly, which contributes to the overall expansion of the market, as consumers are more likely to show a preference for sustainable solutions. Subsequently, more and more manufacturers began to use retreaded tires in commercial and heavy vehicles. The expansion of the logistics industry and the rising demand for freight have created a favorable environment for the sales of retreaded tires. As a result of the increased wear and tear on tires, the demand for retread of tire has increased. Fleet operators are looking at opportunities to save costs while maintaining a sustainable and safe vehicle fleet. Fleet owners have sought to tackle this problem is the use of retread tires, which many are finding to be beneficial. Retread tire quality also has improved significantly in recent years as a result of the introduction of advanced technology.

COVID-19 Impact analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted the global economy at numerous stages and the effect is seen on vehicle industry as well. COVID-19 has created an indirect impact on the automotive retread tire manufacturing companies resulting in production shut down. The global automobile sector has faced the severe challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic as the production houses got closed, inventories started overflowing, and the demand completely subsided which impact the sales of retread tires market. Services across the globe have halted due to the ban on transportation. Airlines and ships stopped operating in many countries, which made cargo transportation impossible. This is estimated to result in huge losses to manufacturers. Automobiles makers, consumer electronics, and pharmaceuticals in various countries rely on China and other developed countries for the supply of several raw materials. However, due to the pandemic, this got severely affected. The supply chain has been broken due to lockdown and the demand has completely subsided, which are estimated to take a very long time to revive.
Top Impacting Factors
- The rising demand for cost effective & economical tires, growing logistics market, and rising demand for retread tire in light commercial vehicle are driving the growth of the market.
- Less reliability is expected to hamper the growth of the market.
- Environment friendly, and technological development can be seen as an opportunity for the market investments.
The retread tire market trends are as follows:
Rising demand for retread tire in light commercial vehicle
Retreading of tires has always been a popular concept with heavy commercial vehicles, but with time the potential benefits of using it for light commercial vehicles have been noticed. In a light-duty car, the manufacture of a single tire consumes an average of 26 liters of oil, while retreading the same tire consumes only 9 liters of oil, which accounts for almost 34% of the new manufacturing process. On the other hand, according to the Retread Tire Association, for a large SUV, the cost of a new set of four tires is about $1,000. Almost 50% of the cost is saved by adopting retreading for light-duty vehicles. Various tire manufacturing companies are launching retread tire, for instance, Michelin launched two new pre-mold retreads to expand its lineup of tire retread technologies. This retread offers fuel savings through its innovative compound tread for a lower total cost of ownership. Also, Goodyear tire & rubber company and cooper tire & rubber company stated that they have entered a definitive transaction agreement to increases scale to support investments in New Mobility and Fleet Solutions. Thus, retreading suppliers are now focusing on light-duty vehicle along with certain tire manufacturers entering into the retreading business, such as The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company for light commercial vehicles. Thus rising demand for retread tire in light commercial vehicle will drive the demand for retread tire market.
