Run-flat Tire Market Prevalent Opportunities upto 2027

Run-flat tires are designed in such a way that they allow safe driving of the vehicle for a specific distance even after a tire puncture. The vehicle cannot be driven indefinitely with a run-flat tire; however, these tires enable the driver to drive to a repair facility, thereby preventing a sudden breakdown. Generally, a vehicle with run-flat tire can be driven up to 50 miles on loss of inflation pressure. However, this distance varies as per automaker standards and tire range.

A tire puncture can lead to a serious accident due to loss of steering control. Demand for improvement in vehicle safety and minimization of the potential secondary accident risk is driving the demand for run-flat tires. Run-flat tires have been adopted as standard fitments by several automakers such as BMW, Cadillac, and Mercedes Benz. Adoption of run-flat tires improves the safety rating of the vehicle and hence, are being increasingly adopted by automakers.

Rising demand for run-flat tires from automakers to incorporate product differentiating features and improve safety rating of the vehicle is driving the run-flat tire market. Awareness about the hazards of a tire puncture is rising among consumers. Run-flat tires enable the vehicle to be driven to the nearest service center without having to be parked dead on the road while waiting for assistance. Rising consumer demand and awareness is boosting the demand for run-flat tires.


The global run-flat tire market can be segmented based on tire type, vehicle type, sales channel, and region. Based on tire type, the run-flat tire market can be classified into self-supporting type and support ring type. Self-supporting tires have a reinforced sidewall that supports the tire, maintain its structure, and bears the weight of the vehicle weight. Self-supporting run-flat tires are extensively utilized and hence, the self-supporting type segment accounts for a leading share of the market.

The support ring type run-flat tire comprises a hard rubber ring inside the tire that supports the vehicle weight in case of deflation due to puncture. A key advantage of the support ring type run-flat tire is that is does not require replacement, as is required in case of self-supporting type tire. However, the wheels for the support ring type tires are unique, consumers thus have to purchase wheels and tires, which has led to the low rate of adoption of the support ring type tire.


In terms of vehicle type, the global run-flat tire market can be classified into passenger vehicle, light commercial vehicle, and heavy commercial vehicle. The passenger vehicle segment held a notable share of the run-flat tire market, owing to the adoption of run-flat tires in premium and luxury vehicles. Rising awareness among commercial fleet operators about driving safety is expected to boost the adoption of these tires in commercial vehicles, thereby drive the run-flat tire market.

Global Spill Pallets Market 2019 Top Key Players – UltraTech International, Inc., Safety Storage Systems, Eagle Manufacturing Company

The need to keep the goods safe and in proper condition during transportation has been one of the major concerns for shipping and logistic entities today. In order to overcome this challenge, particularly the chemical and petrochemical industry is now shifting from convention pallets to spill pallets, ensuring safety for longer journeys. Spill pallets are used in transportation, storage, and handling of the bulk containers such as drums, IBC, tanks and jerry cans. The use of spill pallets not only improves the convenience in handling of the bulk containers by spill containment of industrial fluids but also ensures the safety of crew and housekeeping members by improving facility protection system.

Spill pallets are commonly made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material as it has high resistance to most of the chemicals and corrosive liquids, and for achieving high load carrying capacity, steel is used for manufacturing of spill pallets. Spill Pallets are available in various formats to support various functions such as outdoor storage, transportation, and other unique storage requirements.

In terms of revenue, the global medical packaging films market is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period, owing to numerous factors, about which TMR offers thorough insights and forecasts in this report.
Medical packaging films are flexible films used for the packaging of pharmaceuticals and medical devices. 

Medical packaging films are used to manufacture medical packaging items such as blood bags & pouches, blister packs, tray lids, sachets, medical labels, and tags. Flexible medical packaging films are primarily used because of their low cost and high barrier properties against moisture and gas.

Their ability to seal heat, prevent leakages, and be easily laminated to paper, aluminum, and other plastics makes them popular. Medical packaging films are made up of materials such as polyethylene, polystyrene, polyamide, PVC, aluminum, and oxides. Medical packaging films include high barrier films, co-extruded films, and formable films. The high barrier medical packaging films segment is expected to witness a rapid growth as compared to the other segments.


High barrier films include metalized and coated medical packaging films . Medical packaging films can be coated with polymer or aluminum and produced as multi-layer laminates or co-extrusions. Medical packaging films are coated with aluminum or oxides to improve their barrier properties. Metalized medical packaging films are less expensive and more flexible than foil laminates which have the same barrier property. Medical packaging films pouches are widely used across the globe for single-use disposable items such as gloves, catheters, tubing, bandages, dressings, and syringes.

Medical packaging films tend to provide less physical protection than rigid ones but are preferred choice for the manufacturers of high volume low-cost devices. Pouch and tray lid medical packaging films mainly consist of Tyvek, foil, and few polymer variations. The demand for barriers against moisture, gas, water, etc. is expected to drive the market for the high barrier medical packaging films market.
