PRINX Chengshan moves up to 21st place in global tyre manufacturer rankings, up from 30th in 2020.
PRINX Chengshan has achieved a significant milestone in its international expansion, rising to 21st place in the global ranking of tyre manufacturers. The company has climbed from 30th place in 2020, marking steady growth over the past five years.
This ranking shift reflects the brand's broader ambitions in both OEM and replacement markets, driven by expanding exports and investment in research, manufacturing and sustainability.
Headquartered in China, PRINX Chengshan manufactures a broad range of passenger, truck and specialty tyres. Its key brands — PRINX, Austone, and Fortune — are gaining traction across international markets, including Europe.
The company has focused on:
▪ Expansion of its global distribution network
▪ Investment in smart tyre production and quality control
▪ Development of tyres for evolving mobility needs, including electric vehicles and fuel efficiency
The new ranking puts PRINX Chengshan in closer competition with mid-tier global brands and supports its ambition to become a recognised player in both premium and value tyre segments.
PRINX Chengshan continues to strengthen its presence in Europe, where it operates a regional headquarters in Italy and promotes the PRINX brand as a flagship premium range. The company has also invested in expanding capacity and automation at its Thailand production site, which supports export demand outside China.
Recent product launches have focused on fuel-efficient tread designs, low-noise technology and regulatory compliance for EU markets.
PRINX Chengshan's rise in global rankings reflects an industry trend: Chinese manufacturers are accelerating in both scale and technical capability. The focus on exports, smart production, and diversified brand portfolios mirrors wider market shifts towards cost-effective yet regulation-ready tyre offerings, especially in the EV and value-focused segments.
