Aviation tires (tyres) represent another small but high margin niche market for tires (tyres), in which only a limited number of companies are engaged. Even within a relatively small market there are three separate markets, each with specific and different requirements - commercial, military and general aviation.

This market has been dominated by the more technically advanced companies able to devote research and development resources to designing and manufacturing these sophisticated products but more companies, particularly in the developing world, now believe themselves capable of providing the same technical support to their sales effort.

Air transport has shown consistent growth for the last fifty years and growth in absolute numbers will increase faster than world GDP. However there are increasing pressures on the industry which will change its structure and the composition of its fleets. This will inevitably affect the demand for tires (tyres) in terms of quantity and, more importantly, design quality.

An Apology
Half the world uses the word "tire" whilst the other half uses "tyre". Unfortunately search engines don't realise that they mean the same. In order to be recognised by the search machines we have had to resort to the irritating strategy of duplicating the two words. Sorry!
