The global off-the-road tire market is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6% by 2023. This market is influenced by the implementation of strict vehicular emission and fuel economy regulations. One of the significant factors contributing to market development is the use of off-the-road tires in mining applications. These tires play a crucial role in vehicle efficiency, as they affect rolling resistance, which, in turn, impacts fuel consumption.
Governments in various countries are advocating the production and adoption of tires that help control emissions, in line with stringent vehicular emission and fuel economy standards. This focus on environmental regulations is influencing the growth of the off-the-road tire market. Additionally, the expansion of the construction and mining sectors, along with increased production of off-the-road vehicles, is expected to further boost market growth.
