What is this report: part of the work of ETRMA is that of collecting information and data with regard to the tyre and general rubber goods industry. This report should give you a clear picture of the size of the European Industry and its relations with the rest of the world.
How to use this report: as you can see on the right each section of the report is marked by a colour. These colours will guide you through the report and will help you skipping to the section you want to review.
Our sources: ETRMA used for this report a variety of sources. These include its own members, Eurostat, LMC and the International Rubber Study Group.
FOREWORD ETRMA is the leading voice of tyre and rubber goods producers. Since 1959, the Association is devoted to advocating the interests of the tyre and rubber manufacturing industries with the European Union institutions and other international organizations.
ETRMA contributes to ensuring the development, competitiveness and growth of the tyre and rubber industry in contributing to all the initiatives in favour of health, safety & environment protection, transport and road safety and access to third markets in coordination with the European public authorities.
Statistical data are an important element of the knowledge about our sector consisting of a wide range of products, many of which are traded internationally. The product range of our Members is extensive from tyres, construction and automotive rubber goods to pharmaceutical, baby care, etc.
Trade has become a more important and sensitive issue than in the past: Europe is still recovering from the financial crisis, whilst emerging countries are catching up and rapidly increasing their market share in the EU.
For this reason it is essential to have a complete picture of the tyre and general rubber goods sector through accurate statistics. This necessity applies also to the situation of rubber as a raw material market, for which Europe is still totally dependent on imports from South East Asia.
For all other information, we invite you to visit our website www.etrma.org or contact the ETRMA secretariat.

Vehicle Data
ETRMA This section gives an overview of the European vehicle parc and its evolution through the years, including a forecast until 2025. It also includes a comparison between European sales of new vehicles with the world sales and imports into Europe. Data shows the following:
•The vehicle parc in Europe and the US is growing significantly slower than that of other regions, China in particular;
•There is a decline of European sales of new vehicles compared to sales in the rest of the world;
•Sales of commercial vehicles in Europe are slowly recovering from the crisis, while those of cars are still on a negative series of results.

GENERAL RUBBER GOODS
ETRMA
This section gives an overview of the European Industry producing General Rubber Goods (GRG). The main findings are the following: •After a sharp fall in 2008 and 2009, the GRG production trend of European main producer countries became positive again in 2010. In 2011 the progress slowed down and it remains still below the pre-crisis level – with the exception of Germany. •Five out of 10 of the main GRG companies are European. •The trade balance is still positive, although by a small amount, if imports and exports are measured in euros, but negative when measured in tonnes. •Imports are dominated by countries producers of natural rubber, exports are more evenly distributed.

The graphs show that while GRG imports significantly outweighs exports in tonnage, the exports are higher when measured in value. The reason for this is that the EU imports “row materials” at a lower value and export them as finished products at a higher one. However, it should also be noted that EU exports are declining and for the first time since 2001 import and exports are getting closer.

The high proportion of imports from Malaysia and Thailand confirms that the European rubber industry imports a considerable amount of raw rubber materials to transform it in high technology products.

The main findings are the following: •Tyre production in Europe increased in 2011, but it still has not reached pre-crisis level; •The market share of ETRMA’s members in Europe is decreasing and it reached the all time low of 77% in the cars and light truck segment and 81% in the truck and bus segment; •Tyre trade flow remains unbalanced with China dominating the imports in all segments; •Since the entry into force of the FTA with Korea, exports have been steadily growing and in 2011 they were three times the volume of the previous year; •Tyre Recovery remains high and sustainable in Europe.

Import / export of truck tyres
The drop in EU exports of 2007 can be interpreted with the beginning for the subprime crisis in the US, which is one of the main markets for EU tyre exports. The descending trend of EU exports lasted until 2010, when a slow recovery started.
