Europe green tire market is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 14% during 2019 - 2024, on account of increasing vehicle sales and fleet size as well as government regulations on tire energy labelling. Green tires are manufactured from renewable materials such as nylon rubber unlike conventional tires that are made of rubber. Several tire manufacturers have started adopting environment friendly raw materials that help make tires lighter, thereby reducing vehicle weight. Low weight of the vehicle provides high efficiency with low rolling resistance and less fuel consumption. Moreover, government regulations pertaining to the environmental performance of tire industry and surging consumer awareness is expected to positively influence the market during forecast period.

Moreover, automakers are focusing on enhancing the fuel efficiency of vehicles, which is resulting in high demand for fuel-efficient tires, thereby driving the green tire market in Europe. Based on product type, the market can be bifurcated into radial and bias. Consumers prefer radial tires due to their advantages, such as flexible sidewalls and reduced fuel consumption due to less vibration and resistance over their counterparts.
