Tire Mold Market Overview
Tire molding is the process of shaping raw rubber structure into a functional tire of specified dimensions and properties. The process includes designated pressure for the green tire in a mold to give it final shape, and heat energy to stimulate the chemical reaction between the rubber and other materials. The global tire mold market is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period (2020–2030), on account of rise in automotive ownership pattern, industrialization, population growth, and urbanization.
The tire mold market on the basis of product is classified into segmented molds, and two-piece molds. Between these, the two-piece mold category dominated the market during the historical period (2014–2019), owing to the ease of operation and lesser complexity. Whereas, the segmented mold category is projected to witness faster growth during the forecast period, owing to higher efficiency in curing and molding of green tires.
The tire mold market based on application is categorized into passenger car radial (PCR) tires, truck & bus radial (TBR) tires, off-the-road (OTR) tires, and others. Among all, the PCR tires category held the largest market share, due to the growth in automotive ownership trend. However, the TBR tires category is expected to grow fastest, owing to high demand from transport and logistics sectors.
By geography, Asia-Pacific (APAC) held the largest share in base year (2019), due to conventionally mature manufacturing industry in China and huge number of vehicles in the APAC region. Moreover, the major tire manufacturers are also operating in the region, which further drives the market growth. However, during the forecast period, North America is expected to witness highest growth rate due to recent trade restrictions from China.
Tire Mold Market Dynamics
Drivers
The burgeoning demand for tire molds is attributed to increasing global sales of automobiles and tire replacement rate in vehicles.
