Thanks to the rapid development of the market, China's tire industry is showing changes with each passing day, and some development trends have also attracted the attention of the industry.

So, from the Chinese tire industry in 2017, what are the development trends in this industry in the future?

Tire industry presents four major trends Tire industry presents four major trends

Intelligent Manufacturing

Under the general trend of “Made in China 2025” proposed by the country, the Chinese tire industry is welcoming a revolution in intelligence, automation, and information technology.

In 2016, Shandong Province determined that the tire industry will be the focus of capacity reduction, and will develop intelligent manufacturing as the primary means of industrial transformation and upgrading.

In this era, tire companies that continue traditional production methods may face the risk of being eliminated.

In the past two years, large-scale, forward-looking tire companies such as Delta, Double Star, Wanli, and Sen Kirin have invested heavily in creating "intelligent factories."

Shi Wei, general manager of Hefei Wanli Tire Co., Ltd., said that if it achieves Industry 4.0, the average output value of Hefei Wanli will increase by three times compared with the same industry, comprehensive energy consumption will be greatly reduced, and product consistency will be greatly improved.

It is understood that, compared with traditional production, "Intelligent Manufacturing" will play an increasingly important role in solving labor costs, homogenizing products, and improving efficiency.

The development of smart manufacturing has become the general trend of transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. Whether the tire companies take the road of intelligence may be related to their future fate and long-term development.

Green tire industrialization

The data shows that at present, the global car ownership is about 830 million, and the emitted carbon dioxide accounts for 18% of global emissions.

Authoritative agencies predict that by 2030, the carbon dioxide emissions from cars will double.

This means that it is imperative to develop a green tire industry that is low-carbon, environmentally friendly and less fuel-efficient.

As early as 2012, China has officially started the industrialization of green tires. Its entire production process practices green manufacturing concepts and advocates green use.

At present, Wanli, Zhongceg, Linglong, Fengyuan and Sai Jinyu have already passed the green tire certification.

The development of green tires is in line with the trend of "integration of the two countries", and it is also an effective means to enhance the competitiveness of enterprise products.

Waste tire processing

In 2015, the amount of used tires produced in China reached 12 million tons, while the recycling amount was only about 5 million tons.

More than 60% of used tires have not been recovered and become a new type of pollution.

China's "13th Five-Year Plan" proposes that we must vigorously develop a circular economy, which provides a policy direction for the disposal and technical development of used tires.

In April 2016, Linglong Tire and Shanghai Jiaotong University reached a cooperation to develop a comprehensive utilization project of used tires. In June, the Double Star Group invested in the establishment of the first intelligent waste tire recycling plant in China.

The need for sustainable development, the extension of producer responsibility, and the enhancement of corporate social responsibility are leading many tire companies to focus on the disposal of used tires and to guide this industry to a new development path.

New material development

China's rubber resources have been heavily dependent on imports. At the same time, with the industrial upgrading, tires made of traditional materials can no longer fully meet the requirements of the new era, people's needs for intelligent, environmental protection, high-end tires.

In recent years, in order to respond to the current shortage of rubber resources and realize industrial transformation and upgrading, China's major tire companies and research institutes have begun to develop new tire materials.

Beijing Lao Duo Gu Zhong Plastic Integrated Materials Research Institute was formally established in Zhongguancun; Shandong Dazhan Nano Materials and Shandong Fengyuan Tire Co., Ltd. produced carbon nanotube tires; Sen Qilin's world's first graphene-based static conductive tire intelligent production line was put into operation. .

In addition, the advancement of the world's tire R&D technology has enabled the introduction of materials such as dandelion rubber, chrysanthemum rubber, and white carbon blacks to inject new life into the development of new tire materials.

The trend shows that the new tire material contains a huge space for development, and its industrialization is no longer a dream.
