Dublin, Feb. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Research Report on the Automobile Tire Industry in China, 2021-2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
According to this report, China's automobile industry has developed rapidly since the access to WTO. China has been the world's largest automobile manufacturer and distributor for 12 years from 2009 to 2020. In the meanwhile, China is as well the world's largest producer and exporter of automobile tires.
Demand for automobile tires can be classified into OEM demand from whole-vehicle manufacturing and replacement demand from automobile aftermarket. In developed countries, there is scarce potential for growth of new automobile sales due to the high market saturation. Therefore, the demand for aftermarket becomes the major driving force of the tire industry.
The analyst figures out two factors that drive the automobile tire industry in China: domestic market and export demand. On the one hand, both production volume and reserve volume of automobiles continue to grow in China. In 2019, the production volume of automobiles reached 25.72 million, representing a CAGR of 6.4% from 2009 to 2019. In 2019, the automobile reserve volume exceeded 1.9 million, representing a CAGR of 15% from 2012 to 2016. These two figures were far higher than the global average figures.
On the other hand, the remarkable cost advantage of Chinese tires over international competitors is correlated with an upward trend of tire export from China. In 2016, the export volume of Chinese automobile tires was 3.31 million and the export value was USD 11.46 billion. Continuous increases in the export of Chinese tires have led to huge international trade barriers faced by Chinese tire export enterprises. However, the cost advantage of Chinese tires is favorable to maintain the export volume at a high level in a short time.
The analyst states that China has established an integrated tire industry chain. Except for natural rubber mainly relying on imports, there are a large number of manufacturers of other raw materials of tires such as synthetic rubber, steel cord and carbon black in China. Chinese enterprises are also competitive in producing tire molds, manufacturing machines, etc. Some major global tire manufacturers have entered China and they perceive China as an important global production base. Nowadays in China, over half of the domestic tire market is dominated by foreign-invested enterprises. Moreover, these foreign-invested enterprises occupy most market shares of OEM for whole vehicles that are highly profitable.
According to incomplete statistics by the analyst, the number of Chinese tire manufacturers has exceeded 500 by the end of 2020. A majority of domestic tire manufacturers are characterized by small-scale enterprises that produce in a small volume, facing risks of closing down or being acquired. In order to avoid increasing domestic labor costs and trade barriers, some domestic tire manufacturers start to acquire tire enterprises or establish plants overseas. A survey by the analyst demonstrates that enterprises such as Sailun Jinyu Co., Ltd., Linglong Group, Zhongce Rubber Co., Ltd. and Double Coin Holdings Ltd. have established tire plants in Thailand, Vietnam, etc.
Although China has been the world's largest new automobile market since 2008, automobile reserves per capita remain low, with the automobile reserve volume being less than 200 per thousand persons and lower than the figure of 600-1000 per thousand persons in developed courtiers. It is estimated that China's annual economic growth rate will remain over 5% from 2021 to 2025. The production and sales volume of tires will present an annual growth rate of about 5%. Similarly, the automobile reserve volume will continue to climb, stimulating domestic demand for tires.
According to this analysis, the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic has had an adverse impact on China's tire manufacturing industry in the first quarter of 2020. However, since April 2020, China's tire manufacturing industry has gradually recovered. Although due to the impact of the epidemic, global and Chinese automobile production has declined, reducing the demand for tires in the new car market, the demand for tires in the aftermarket remains high. In 2019, China's tire export volume was about 500.6 million, and the CAGR from 2015 to 2019 was about 3%. The analyst expects that due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020, China's tire exports will slightly decline.
From 2021 to 2025, the CAGR of China's tire exports will remain at least 2%. The analyst predicts that the biggest risk facing China's tire industry in the future is due to the rising costs of China's manpower, land, and energy, causing tire manufacturing companies in China to move to Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam.
