On September 28, it was reported that recently, China's tire manufacturing industry has faced severe challenges from tight supply and demand of raw materials. This situation has directly promoted a significant increase in tire manufacturing costs. In this context, many well-known tire manufacturers have taken countermeasures and issued product price increases notices one after another, setting off waves of price increases.

It is reported that Guangdong Maxima Tire has announced that starting from October 1, the invoiced price of its all-steel products will be increased by 2%, and plans to raise the price of its all-steel products by 2% again on October 15 to cope with cost pressures. At the same time, Qingdao Rili Tire also decided to increase the price of all the company's brand products by 5-10 points starting from October 1 to alleviate the pressure from rising raw material costs.

According to the Carbon Black Industry Network, Zhengdao Tire is also not willing to lag behind.

In this wave of price increases, Zhengxin Rubber has also joined the ranks. Starting from October 1, it has cancelled APP rebates for Magis PCR products 16 inches and below (including LTR), an increase of about 2%-3%; At the same time, the price of some products 17 inches and above will also increase by 3%-5%.
