Off The Road Tires

Off-road Tires Market Analysis and Global Outlook

MARKET OVERVIEW

Global Market: 31.8 billion (2023 E)

Expected to grow at a 4.8 percent to $34.9 billion by 2025

• The APAC will continue to dominate the market, in terms of growth prospects, until 2025

• Shift of market focus from product to service has been witnessed as an emerging trend in all the major regions to optimize buyer’s total cost of ownership

Global OTR Tire Market Maturity

• Key trend, which is expected to influence OTR tire market maturity, would be the customer’s reliance on the distribution network. Both mining and construction customers are increasingly looking out for additional services, such as tire tracking, while procuring tires.

Off-road Tires Industry Overview

• The OTR tire market of around $30.3 billion has a high value from the mining industry, the majority of which comes from the surface/opencast mining sector.

• Electrification of mines is expected to be a major OE demand driver for OTR tires during 2022–2024. Mining companies are actively engaging in HME manufacturers to deploy electric vehicles at their mine sites to reduce on-site mine reductions

• The market witnessed an increase in demand across all end-use demand during 2022. A similar trend is expected to continue during 2023 in the mining and agricultural segments.

• Demand from construction is expected to slowdown, due to weak macroeconomic indicators

Global OTR Market Size and Trend

• The market is expected to grow by 4.8 percent Y-o-Y growth until 2025, owing to an anticipated increase in demand from the mining and agricultural segments.

• In addition, increasing demand in small and medium OTR tires from the construction sector is expected to further support the demand between 2022 and 2024

• Original equipment (OE) demand is expected to surpass the replacement demand by 1–2 percent. The OE demand continues to grow in the mature market, as demand for tires used in infrastructure is at a constant rise.

• Demand for large/ultra-large OTR tires is expected to grow between 3 percent and 6 percent annually until 2023, fueled by increased demand from commodity, such as gold.

• Significant decline in coal mining is anticipated in the upcoming years, due to the growing dependence on alternative energies, coupled with environmental/regulatory pressure. This would drive down the OTR tire demand from coal miners, thus providing opportunities for other miners to lock their capacity for the upcoming years and develop an upper hand in negotiation with the suppliers

Global OTR Market: Drivers and Constraints

Commodity demand is the major market driver to forecast OTR tire demand growth; cyclical condition may result in an unpredicted estimation.

Drivers

Commodity Demand:

• Commodity demand is a result of the global economic situation. Increase of commodity demand and commodity prices is expected to drive the demand for OTR tires

OEM Sales/Demand:

• Increase in demand for haul truck/mining truck drives up the OTR tire demand. Mining truck, especially the sales of 110 tons truck-class, and higher versions of the same class are expected to witness a gradual growth until 2022

Constraints

COVID-19 Pandemic

• Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the global supply chain thus making transportation of raw materials and finished goods a challenging task to reach the destination.

Cyclical Market Condition:

• The manufacturers usually show considerable constraint in terms of tire pricing, as the industry faces an unpredicted demand fluctuation in a short span of time

Currency Fluctuation:

• Fluctuations in currency exchange rates are adversely affecting the margins and financial performances of OTR tire manufacturers

Market Analysis –Demand and Supply

• In order to mitigate the financial impact of the recession, suppliers are tracking the supply–demand dynamics closely on a periodic basis to keep the inventory under control. Thus, the market will not remain in a supply surplus situation until the medium term

• Supply in China is anticipated to be affected during late Q4 2022 and early 2023, owing to regional lockdowns, due to a rapid spread of the COVID-19 variant

• Growth in the mining sector and major mine expansion projects in Australia and the South American region are expected to drive the demand of OTR tires in the upcoming quarters

• Surging demand from construction in the APAC region is expected to bring new suppliers to the market in the medium and large OTR tire segment, thus expanding the choices for end-user and making it critical for them to choose their supply partner

• Capacity expansion, restart activities of OTR, and heavy-duty tires across the globe by major suppliers are expected to ease supply tightness in the upcoming quarters
