China's Tire Manufacturing Equipment Market Set for Growth Through 2035 as Automation and Smart Production Unlock New Opportunities
Dublin, Sept. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "China Tire Manufacturing Equipment Market Size and Share - Growth Analysis Report and Forecast Trends (2026-2035)" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The China Tire Manufacturing Equipment Market was valued at USD 3.20 billion in 2025 and is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 5.5% through 2035. Supported by modernization initiatives across domestic and foreign-invested production facilities, the market is expected to reach USD 4.91 billion by 2035.
China accounts for approximately 30% of global tire production and maintains the world's largest tire manufacturing capacity. The country hosts major international manufacturers, including Michelin, Bridgestone and Goodyear, alongside leading Chinese producers such as Zhongce Rubber, Triangle Tire, Linglong Tire and Sailun Group. This extensive production base continues to generate substantial demand for tire building machines, curing presses, mixing systems, testing platforms and auxiliary processing equipment.
Automation is a central growth driver for the China tire manufacturing equipment market. Manufacturers are replacing traditional labor-intensive processes with automated tire building machines, intelligent material handling systems and integrated production controls. These investments are improving manufacturing consistency, production efficiency and quality assurance while supporting greater output across passenger car, commercial vehicle and specialty tire operations.
Rapid expansion of China's electric vehicle industry is also reshaping equipment requirements. EV tire production requires specialized compound mixing, precise component assembly and reinforced construction capable of supporting higher vehicle weight and instant-torque loads. Demand for low rolling resistance, reduced road noise and enhanced durability is encouraging tire producers to invest in advanced mixing, building, curing and inspection technologies.
Key Market Trends and Insights
China Tire Manufacturing Equipment Market Size and Forecast
Export-oriented tire production provides an additional source of market growth. Chinese manufacturers supplying Europe, North America and other regulated markets are increasing investment in testing, inspection and quality control equipment to satisfy stringent performance, safety and consistency requirements. Automated visual inspection, uniformity testing, X-ray inspection and production traceability systems are becoming increasingly important within modern tire plants.
Domestic equipment suppliers are also strengthening China's position in the global tire machinery industry. Companies active in mixing, engineering, automation and production technology are developing increasingly competitive equipment for domestic deployment and international export. Their progress is expanding access to advanced manufacturing solutions while supporting the modernization of established tire plants.
The competitive outlook remains favorable as tire manufacturers pursue higher productivity, lower operating costs and stronger product quality. Continued investment in radial tire production, EV tire capacity, automated tire building technology and advanced testing systems is expected to sustain demand across the forecast period.
