Rising demand for whole tire reclaim (WTR) is a significant trend in the global market for reclaimed rubber, and it is expected to contribute greatly to market growth in the near future. High demand for the product stems from its high versatility and durability, as well as its low processing costs and low environmental impact.

Airlines are expanding and developing new routes, resulting in a demand for new aircraft. The purchase of new aircraft will create a demand for new tires at the same time. During the tire contact with the ground, the tire must also bear the entire weight of the aircraft, making them more prone to wear and tear. This necessitates the replacement of commercial aircraft tires after more than 200 landings to avoid accidents caused by tire wear and tear, bolstering the aftermarket of commercial aircraft tires. This in turn, is expected to increase the demand for reclaimed rubber during the forecast period.
