OTR Tire Market Segment Analysis – By Type
Green tire is made from recycled materials like nylon rubber through a process that does not require an excessive amount of energy. Conventional tires are made of rubber, but tires are now often manufactured from sustainable raw materials such as plasticizers and resins, with growing energy concerns. Such environmentally friendly raw materials are increasingly chosen over traditional products due to advantages such as being lighter than traditional products, which results in a reduction of the vehicle's total weight. This also needs less fuel and helps lower the resistance to rolling. During the forecast period, the green tires are expected to witness a lucrative growth rate mainly due to advantages such as long-life and retractable tires. Also, the increase in energy costs, strict government regulations, and increased environmental awareness regarding fuel consumption among consumers will lead towards the increase in the use of green tires in vehicles during the forecast period at 7.5% CAGR.
OTR Tire Market Segment Analysis – By Geography
North America dominates the OTR Tires Market with a highest share at 36.5% followed by Europe and APAC in 2020.

Moreover, the presence of key players such as Goodyear tires and others in U.S are effectively leading to enhance the growth of the market. Additionally, the global OTR Tires market growth is led by APAC due to high usage of heavy vehicle in agricultural sector and construction sites. These significant factors are expected to increase the requirement of such vehicles equipped with OTR Tires in this region, thus propelling the growth of the OTR Tires market.
OTR Tire Market Drivers
Increase in commercial vehicles
The use of commercial vehicles such as mining trucks, Earth movers, tractors and other agricultural machinery are expected to have significant rise in the growth of OTR Tires market. The rising population in countries like India, china and other are deploying the agricultural machinery having OTR tires for their agricultural field which is expected to drive OTR tires market in the forecasted period.
Increasing the production of automotive
The rise in the middle-class population and income has led to the growing demand for automotive in recent years. In addition, the company's growing interest in exploring the rural markets further aided the sector's growth. According to India Brand Equity Foundation, India is also a popular car exporter with high hopes for export development in the near future. During FY19, automotive exports grew 14.5% despite declining sales in India and China. It is projected to rise during 2016-2026 at a CAGR of 3.05% despite Covid-19 impact. However, multiple initiatives by the Government of India and the major car players on the Indian market are expected to make India a pioneer in the two and four wheels. By enabling consumers to travel long distances for work, shopping, and entertainment, the automotive industry has encouraged the development of a comprehensive road system, enabled the growth of suburbs and shopping centers around major cities, and played a key role in the growth of ancillary industries such as oil and travel.
