Press Release Body = Trends in the Global Tire Industry : For a century the tire industry has made much the same product in much the same way and by many of the same companies.
There have been changes, some important, but with few exceptions these changes have been incremental, not revolutionary. Mergers and acquisitions, improvements in materials, changes in design have all helped to make tires cheaper, more effective and longer lasting but tires have remained an unexciting commodity product.
The companies involved in the industry have shown poor growth and low returns on investment.
Several unconnected developments are now occurring which have the potential to change the industry further and which will have major implications for the tire industry.
The growth of global brands is changing the market and this in turn is affecting the brand owners and their relationships with competitors · New designs of tires, the development of run-flat tires (such as the Michelin PAX concept) will have a major effect on the design of vehicles and on the future size of the market · National and regional legislation, partly prompted by the Firestone recall, is changing the product specification, the whole life cost of the tire and the relationship between manufacturers and VMs · New manufacturing techniques are revolutionising the way tires are made and altering the economics of the industry.
Any one of these changes would have a profound effect on the industry - taken together they point to a restructuring of the sector.
