The implementation of tire labeling regulation in countries of EU, Japan and Korea, which is a prerequisite for manufacturing of high grade 'Green Tires', is expected to augment S-SBR demand,. EU regulations have made it mandatory for all manufacturers to label their tire for wet grip and rolling resistance. In order to have high grade of tire, S-SBR along with Nd-PBR filler is a key requirement. Certain SBR manufacturers such as Lanxess have converted their E-SBR plants to S-SBR in order to meet the growing demand from the tire manufacturers.
