Tire mold industry has a bright future

In recent years, with the adjustment of the tire mold industry in China and the pace of enterprise restructuring, the rapid development of production, mold design and manufacturing levels have been further improved. China's tire mold industry has been healthy development. The production and sales of domestic tire molds are booming, and relying on technological transformation and technological innovation, the pace of advancement of tire mold enterprises to high-tech enterprises has increased.

Last year, the domestic tire industry was affected by the deceleration of the world economy, and tire exports faced with a more complex situation. In addition, due to factors such as the unstable prices of rubber and other raw materials and the uncontrollability of costs, the economic operation of production was very difficult. However, with the efforts of the entire industry, the overall economic performance in 2011 maintained a relatively stable growth. In 2011, the country’s total tire production was 456 million, an increase of 2.93% over the previous year.

Luo Baihui, the secretary-general of the International Model Association, pointed out that the tire mold industry has a very broad prospect for development. The increase of radial tires for domestic tires will greatly increase the demand for radial tire molds. The transfer of tire manufacturing capacity to China has greatly driven the rapid growth of the domestic tire mold market. In particular, the rapid development of the automotive industry has greatly increased the market demand for tire molds, and also provided a huge market space for the development of the tire mold industry.

Luo Baihui said that the development speed of China's tire molds has maintained the world's best for many years in a row. In recent years, the total industrial output value of domestic tire mold enterprises has increased by 20% annually. All indications indicate that China is in a critical stage of transition from a "great country" to a "powerful country." In 2012, the tire industry enterprises should combine the actual status quo of the tire industry, maintain a steady and moderate development of tires, change from the pursuit of quantity to focus on quality, maintain the basic stability of the prices of rubber raw materials and tires, and make new breakthroughs in the tire's independent technological innovation.
