For instance, the production quantity of tire cords in the textile industry in Japan increased by 5.3 thousand tonnes, in 2021.
Furthermore, South Korea exports tire cord fabric of high tenacity yarn to Singapore worth USD50 Thousand in 2021.
Tire cord fabrics are used as a reinforcing element in the production of tires. These materials are made with the intention of supporting vehicle weight and maintaining the shape of tires, while also contributing to longer tire life. A variety of products are used in the production of lightweight, wear-resistant tires for passenger cars, trucks, SUVs, and aeroplanes and this aspect is anticipated to be the main driver for the growth of the market in the upcoming years.
Rising Demand for Electric Vehicles (EVs)
For instance, according to the Global EV Outlook 2022, consumers spent USD 250 billion on electric vehicle purchases in 2021. Furthermore, global sales of electric cars kept rising strongly in 2022, with 2 million sold in the first quarter, which is 75% up from the same period in 2021.
Growing Demand for Lightweight & Fuel-Efficient Vehicles
The automobile industry depends largely on tires and tire supplies for secure and safe transportation. Automobiles employ tire cord textiles to maintain the shape and longevity of the tires. Tire cords increase vehicle and fuel efficiency by absorbing more weight and pressure for a longer duration. The essential need for lightweight components which are used in automobile parts provides greater fuel efficiency and reducing emissions. Due to its increased fuel economy, tire cord is considered a crucial component for vehicle's performance. The global tire cords market is anticipated to grow as a result of rising consumer demand for fuel-efficient automobiles.
For instance, according to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, the total number of vehicles produced in 2021 was more than 80 million.
Increasing Focus on Developing Eco-Friendly Tire
By forming alliances and introducing new products, the top players in the tire cord fabric market are concentrating on creating durable tire cord fabric for environmentally friendly tires. The approach allows for the bonding of fabric to rubber without the use of resorcinol or formaldehyde and does not call for any modifications to the process equipment, which benefits tire cord producers and the sustainable supply chain.
For instance, in 2020, the first series tires with Cokoon Dip Technology, which use resorcinol and formaldehyde free adhesion, were launched by a joint venture between Continental, a German automobile components producer, and Kordsa, a Turkish tire and construction reinforcement manufacturer.
