The global rubber track market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period. Rubber tracks are used in off-road vehicles to offer improved stability on slopes and uneven terrains. They are made of a tear-resistant compound and a mixture of natural and synthetic rubbers with steel cords and inflated metal cores. The combination provides a smoother ride, minimizing noise, and vibration on harder surfaces, and improved flexibility and floatation. The global rubber track market is growing significantly across the globe due to rising demand from end-users which includes agriculture, construction, military, and other sectors. The higher cost of rubber tracks as compared to other alternatives is estimated to be the major factor that is holding back the growth of the market in the region. The rising demand from the construction and transportation sector is boosting the rubber track market in the Asia-Pacific. Growing rubber industries are creating scope for rubber tracks across the globe especially, the EU and Asia-Pacific are considered to be the most lucrative destinations for rubber track industries.

Global Rubber Tracks Market by Type, 2021 (%)
The Asia Pacific Region is Anticipated to be Fastest Growing in the Global Rubber Tracks Market
Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest-growing in the rubber tracks market owing to the growth of the construction industry in Asian countries, including Japan, China, India, and Indonesia, which is contributing heftily increasing demand for rubber tracks. These countries are highly industrialized, which is expected to increase the demand for advanced rubber tracks. For instance, in March 2021, a new kind of infantry fighting vehicle was tracked in service with the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA). This newly tracked infantry fighting vehicle is predicted to be used for transporting troops and replacing some of the less capable and obsolete equipment. Additionally, as per GlobalFirepower, the country has 5,250 tanks and around 35,000 armored vehicles. The development of new infantry fighting vehicles, high spending across the defense sector, and increasing defense exports majorly drive the military rubber track market in China. For instance, in September 2021, the Indian government allocated $1 billion for the procurement of Arjuna Mk-1A 118 battle tanks. The elevating military spending is contributing to the military rubber tracks market growth in Asia-Pacific.
Market Players Outlook
The competitive landscape includes key strategies of leading players, recent developments, and key company analysis. The major players that contribute to the growth of the market include Bridgestone Corp., Continental AG, Camso Inc., Chermack Machine Inc., DIGBITS Ltd., GRUPPO MINITOP SRL, and McLaren Industries, Inc., among others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in November 2021, Rheinmetall Australia acquired CRTs from Soucy for executing trials in its Lynx KF41 IFV. These factors positively impacted the growth of the military rubber track market. China is one of the biggest exporters of defense equipment across the globe.
