In 2023, the India Off-the-Road Tyre (OTR) Market Report by IMARC captured the growing OTR/construction tyre industry as the market size reached 11.3 million units. Just as two or more wheels move the automotive sector, the use of OTRs tyres, utilised for large-scale machinery at construction, mining and other sites with no roads, is growing owing to increasing infrastructural, construction, mining, agriculture and forestry activities.India’s off-highway tyre market is designed for heavy equipment used in the construction industry and able to withstand harsh conditions such as rough terrain, heavy loads and abrasive materials. OTR tyres are commonly used in vehicles and machinery such as excavators, loaders, dump trucks and bulldozers and come in various sizes and configurations to accommodate specific applied machinery. Major usage is seen in skid-steer, backhoe and compact loaders, graders, compactors and trenchers. This equipment largely deals with digging, loading, excavation, lifting, road construction and paving.To read the full story, CLICK HERE
