Tire retreading is a re-manufacturing process that involves adding fresh tread to used tires, effectively extending their lifespan. This practice is employed to provide fleet owners and other vehicle operators with a cost-effective, reliable, and environmentally friendly solution for managing tire replacement expenses and reducing their ecological footprint.
The primary methods of tire retreading include pre-cure and mold cure. In pre-cure tire retreading, the process utilizes rubber that has already undergone vulcanization and carries the imprint of the new tread pattern. These methods find applications across various vehicle types such as heavy trucks and buses, light commercial vehicles, off-road vehicles, and passenger cars. Additionally, they cater to diverse end-users, including automobiles and heavy machinery.

The tire retreading market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $7.67 billion in 2024 to $8.04 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to cost savings and economic benefits, environmental sustainability awareness, stringent tire disposal regulations, global economic factors, focus on fleet maintenance and efficiency.
The tire retreading market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.22 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to circular economy initiatives, increased commercial vehicle fleet size, government incentives for sustainable practices, global efforts to reduce carbon emissions, increased consumer awareness. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in retreading technology, development of high-performance retreaded tires, utilization of cold retreading techniques, introduction of smart retreading solutions, focus on quality certification and standards, adoption of computerized tread design.
The anticipated growth in the tire retreading market is expected to be fueled by the increasing number of transport and passenger vehicles. Transport vehicles, designed for moving goods or people, and passenger vehicles, which carry no more than 10 individuals, witness a rising demand for retread tires. This cost-effective option not only reduces expenses for passenger car owners but also contributes to waste reduction and the conservation of natural resources. For example, a report by MarkLines Co. Ltd. in September 2023 revealed a 12.7% increase in passenger car sales in August, reaching a total of 280,223 units and a market share of 20.9% in the U.S. The growing fleet of transport and passenger vehicles is thus propelling the tire retreading market.
The growth of the logistics sector is expected to drive the expansion of the tire retreading market in the future. The logistics sector involves the movement, storage, and management of goods and materials across the supply chain, ensuring their efficient flow from production to consumption. Tire retreading helps reduce operational costs for the logistics sector by extending tire lifespan, enhancing fuel efficiency, and minimizing environmental impact. For example, in June 2024, Logistics UK, a UK-based trade association, published a report stating that the logistics sector contributed £185 billion ($233 billion) to the UK's GVA in 2022, marking a significant increase from £160.2 billion ($198 billion) in 2021, reflecting a positive economic growth trend. Therefore, the growing logistics sector is propelling the tire retreading market forward.
Major companies in the tire retreading market are introducing new products, such as multi-life tires, to enhance grip and durability. Multi-life tires are retreaded tires designed for multiple uses, promoting sustainability by reducing waste and resource consumption while maintaining performance and safety. For example, in April 2023, Black Star, a US-based retread tire company, launched the Leonard retreaded tire. This innovative tire is designed as a multi-life product, enabling it to be used across several lifecycles, significantly reducing its environmental impact. It boasts the lowest carbon footprint in the industry, with a remarkable 80% reduction in material usage and up to 60% lower CO2 emissions during production. The Leonard tire provides superior grip, enhanced durability, and improved safety, all while offering low rolling resistance for better fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. It is available in various profiles suitable for passenger cars, SUVs, and commercial vehicles, addressing a wide range of driving conditions.
In April 2022, Pomp's Tire Service Inc., a tire and wheel company based in the US, successfully acquired Dale's Tire & Retreading Inc. The strategic acquisition is geared towards enhancing Pomp's tire service portfolio by leveraging its retreading network, ultimately offering improved services to customers.
