ISSUE 4 Above almost any other country, India’s fast-growing and rapidly developing tyre industry offers endless opportunities for doing business and establishing new trading relationships. Against this dynamic backdrop, Tyrexpo India 2013 returns to the Chennai Trade Centre for the second staging of this important international exhibition. As the epicentre and focal point of the country’s automotive industry, which has seen huge investment from tyre manufacturers in recent years, Chennai is the perfect location for a tyre and equipment exhibition. Exhibitors at Tyrexpo India 2013 reflect the trends and growing maturity of the domestic market. Tyre makers are using the event to display the latest technical advances in radial tyre technology for passenger car, truck, agricultural and OTR applications. The tyre retreading and repair sector is an area that will continue to benefit from the growth of radialisation in years to come, and Tyrexpo India 2013 welcomes many of the country’s leading exponents. More new tyres means more scrap casings and a subsequent need for effective recycling and materials recovery systems, which is yet another area of expertise covered by the show this year. And with expanding private car ownership in India there is growing demand for the latest in workshop and service equipment, tools, machinery and consumables; all of which are all well represented at the exhibition.
