“The demand for retreads is increasing as fleet managers continue to leverage rethread programs to drive lower operating costs. Retreading can save the trucking industry a significant amount, as it is cheaper than going for a replacement. For instance, premium casings provide multiple life cycles, saving fleet managers up to 50% of what they pay for a new truck tire each time they rethread a casing,” says Siddarth Jaiswal, Lead Analyst, Automotive, Technavio Research.

The leading players in the global specialty tire market include Alliance Tire Group, Bridgestone, Continental, Goodyear Tire and Rubber, and Michelin. The market is likely to grow at a good pace over the forecast period. The market is highly fragmented and competitive, characterized by the presence of well-diversified international and local vendors. Local vendors provide cost-effective tires with limited quality and durability. However, international players are currently increasing their presence aggressively, and, as a result, local vendors are finding it difficult to compete with them. As the dynamics of the market is changing, manufacturers are building new machines to keep up with the demand
