Export earnings from rubber tyres and tubes record healthy growth as Pakistan increases both shipment volume and export value during FY2025-26.
Pakistan’s exports of rubber tyres and tubes registered notable growth during the fiscal year 2025-26, with total export earnings reaching Rs32 billion, according to the latest figures released by the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS).
The data showed that Pakistan exported 21,387 units of rubber tyres and tubes during FY2025-26. The exports generated revenue of Rs32 billion, equivalent to $114.2 million, reflecting an improvement in both export volume and value compared to the previous fiscal year.
In comparison, during FY2024-25, Pakistan exported 21,159 units of rubber tyres and tubes. These exports earned Rs29.59 billion, or $105.93 million. The latest figures indicate that the sector maintained a positive growth trajectory despite challenging global trade conditions and fluctuations in raw material costs.
According to PBS statistics, the quantity of rubber tyres and tubes exported during FY2025-26 increased by 1.08 percent compared with the previous fiscal year. Meanwhile, export earnings in rupee terms recorded a stronger rise of 8.26 percent, while dollar-denominated export proceeds increased by 7.81 percent.
The higher growth in export value relative to export volume suggests that exporters benefited from improved pricing, a favorable product mix, or stronger demand in international markets.
The performance also highlights the resilience of Pakistan’s rubber and automotive parts manufacturing sector, which continues to expand its footprint in overseas markets.
Industry observers note that growing demand for replacement tyres, commercial vehicle tyres, and industrial rubber products in regional and international markets may have supported Pakistan’s export performance.
Furthermore, efforts by local manufacturers to enhance product quality and comply with international standards are helping them secure a stronger position in competitive export destinations.
The FY2025-26 export data indicates a positive trend for Pakistan’s tyre and tube industry. Although shipment volume increased by a modest 1.08 percent, export earnings grew at a much faster pace, suggesting better unit values and improved profitability for exporters.
If manufacturers continue investing in technology, quality enhancement, and market diversification, the sector could achieve stronger export growth in the coming years. Rising global demand for automotive components and replacement tyres also presents an opportunity for Pakistan to further increase its share in international markets.
