In 2012, the output volume of rubber tires reached 891.67 million in China, increasing by 7.16% YOY. Among that, the output volume of radial tires totaled 460.5 million, increasing by 17.1% YOY. In terms of regions, China tire production mainly concentrated in east coast regions in 2012. The output volume of Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang totaled 591 million, accounting for about 66% of the total tire output volume in China.

In 2012, the sales revenue of tire manufacturers exceeded CNY 400 billion in China. In 2012, the price of tire materials fluctuated and decreased sharply. Among that, the annual average price of natural rubber (SCR10) decreased from 33,835 CNY/ton to 25,053 CNY/ton, decreasing by 25.9% YOY; that of styrene butadiene rubber (1500) decreased from 26,808 CNY/ton to 20,519 CNY/ton, decreasing by 23.5% YOY; that of butadiene rubber (grade 1) decreased from 30,225 CNY/ton to 22,833 CNY/ton, decreasing by 24.5% YOY.

The causes are as the following:

1. natural rubber supply was sufficient, but its price kept decreasing due to the influence of global slump economy
2. prices of coal and crude oil kept low, so the price of synthetic rubber also decreased after lost cost support.
