From OTR to Tractor Tires, Tire Recycling, Optimal Sourcing Strategies in Volatile Markets...
Apollo Tyres to build a greenfield plant in Hungary with an investment of 200 million euros. ~ The Economic Times, Mar 10, 2008
For the first time in three years, a foreign tire-maker may build a plant in Russia. The U.S. company Goodyear is considering a $200-250-mln project in Yaroslavl region to produce up to 5 mln car tires a year. ~ LexisNexis, May 19 2008
P
rices for synthetic and natural rubber have risen tremendously amid rising crude prices and harvest woes of natural rubber plantations. As material substitution for rubber is minimal, buyers need to juggle costs with more efficient sourcing strategies. What are the challenges and procurement strategies available?
A boom in mining and agriculture activities invariably means a rise in Off the Road Tires (OTR). There is a global shortage now and Bridgestone, whose OTR sales rose by more than 5% last year, plans to increase its output of large and ultra large radial tires by 40% by 2012. (Source: Tire Review, April 1 2008). What is the market dynamics for OTR tires in the CIS region ? The increase in OTR demand has also sparked a demand for retreading. What is the potential and will the growth be parallel to other markets like USA?
While cost management remains important, tire makers in Russia/CEE will also need to continuously innovate to maintain their market position in meeting international industry standards. What are the latest tire trends in the region?
As going “green” becomes more important, will tire recycling play a more important role in the future? What are the trends and prospects ?
