According to General Administration of Customs statistics

According to General Administration of Customs statistics show that in 2009 China's total exports in the first half tires 130 million, down 18.8%, total 3.31 billion U.S. dollars, of which tire exports in Wholesale Nitride Screws Barrels Manufacturers February hit a monthly export volume since 2008, the lowest. Among them, the United States, European Union, Africa and Latin America, respectively, exports of tires 3,307 million 2,542 million 1,777 million and 1,698 million, down 21.7%, 18.2%, 9.7% and 26.7%; of the above mentioned countries and regions in total exports Over the same period China's tire exports accounted for 71.7% of the total.In the first half, China's processing trade exports by 110 million tires accounted for 84.6 percent of total exports, export volume dropped 15.4%, to general trade export of 2,184 million tires, down 31.2%. Downstream, the export of motor cars with the new pneumatic rubber tire 5,091 million, down 8.3%, exports of bicycles with the new pneumatic rubber tire 3,597 million, down 32%.China in the first half led to decline in exports is mainly due to the continuing impact of the international financial crisis, downstream decrease in demand and increasing trade barriers. In the case of exports to the U.S. tire special protection under the influence of external factors such as the second half of China's exports tires is not optimistic.

The U.S. tire production capacity is currently about 3.5 million units, the number of tires imported from China accounted for one fifth of the U.S. market, in volume terms, China's tire exports to the United States is indeed an impact. China top ten tire companies, 70% of co operation with foreign investment, foreign funded enterprises exported 7,354 million tires, while the private sector combined with the state owned enterprises exported 4,792 million, special tariffs may have a greater impact on the joint venture.According to Reuters news agency reported September 14, China's tire industry in a joint venture with processing trade. Exports to China caused damage at the same time it will also harm the U.S. interests of foreign companies.

According to the Chinese Rubber Industry Association estimates, tire manufacturing and related industries will be up to 10 million jobs are threatened, which means that in some areas may bring social and political issues.Since 2009, on the tire barriers to trade are increasing daily. April 29, the United States launched special safeguard investigations against Chinese tires, June 29 decision to impose special tariffs for three years, and in September 11 has made a final decision; May 18, India's fifth to launch in China by car tire special safeguard investigations; June 18, Brazil, decided to import from China, passenger and freight car radial tire levy definitive anti dumping duties for five years.Currently China has more than 500 million sets of tire production in the United States live in the world, while the annual export volume of 2.5 to 300,000,000 units. Developed countries in Europe and the United States financial crisis caused by the weakening demand for cars, which led to a sluggish market demand for tires, orders decreased in the first half, China's tire exports in the face of pressure, plus impose special duties on the export situation will worsen.In the raw materials, the tire companies also face upward pressure. Tire enterprise in the first half profits of substantial growth, mainly prices of raw materials such as natural rubber, Synthetic rubber prices are low.

Now, with rising oil prices, rubber, carbon black and other prices are also gradually uplift, trapped inside and outside the tire business, the performance can hardly be optimistic about the second half.The United States imposed a special tariff, will be operating in the United States imported Chinese tires of more than 200 distributors, more than 43,000 retailers have a major impact. The duties mainly related to semi steel tires and small size all steel tire, domestic related enterprises, mostly OEM (OEM production) orders, and sales channels rests in the hands of foreign capital and profits are mostly traders earn. This makes us more concerned about the tire company's brand and sales networks.The long term, China is becoming the world's tire production capacity to transfer the target site. Europe and the United States developed regions of high labor costs, skilled workers in short supply, large consumption of energy, CO2 pollution, the transfer of production become a trend. However, the transfer of production capacity, so that China take on more environmental costs.
