Smithers is thrilled to announce the upcoming Sustainability in Tires 2024 conference to be held in China, Shanghai. Building on the success of past events including Tomorrow's Tire in 2019 and 2022, and Sustainability in Tires 2023, this year’s conference aims to once again unite global industry professionals and stakeholders in insightful discussions on the future of tire sustainability.

With over 500 delegates participating in previous conferences, Sustainability in Tires 2024 promises to be a pivotal event. It will feature comprehensive sessions covering the latest trends, future outlook, innovative materials and technologies, electric vehicle (EV) tires, circular economy practices, sustainable development, and the management of end-of-life tires.

In conjunction with the conference, Smithers has introduced a dedicated workshop on Off-The-Road (OTR) tires for the first time. This workshop will delve into critical topics such as global market forecasts, industrial challenges, sustainability initiatives, and technological innovations shaping the OTR tire sector.

According to the latest research from Smithers, the global OTR tire market is projected to reach USD 34.4 billion by 2024, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% through 2029. The Asia-Pacific region, particularly emerging and developing economies, is anticipated to experience the highest growth rates, underscoring significant opportunities and robust development prospects in the sector.

"We are excited to host Sustainability in Tires 2024, bringing together industry leaders to explore sustainable solutions and drive innovation in the global tire industry," said Smithers. "This conference and workshop aim to foster meaningful dialogue on key challenges and opportunities, reinforcing our commitment to advancing tire sustainability worldwide."

Sustainability in Tires 2024 will be held on October 14-16, 2024, at Courtyard by Marriott Shanghai Pudong, Shanghai, offering a platform for collaboration and knowledge exchange among tire manufacturers, suppliers, regulators, and sustainability advocates.
