The North American OTR tire market, the largest in the world, was up in 2021 over the previous year, and 2022 promises to be even more robust!

After C5 Equipment Rentals began using Double Coin OTR radials two years ago, surprises were in store -- Double Coin was outlasting comparative Tier One brand tires!

Now that the infrastructure bill has passed, what's next? It doesn't include any signature projects like the national highway system from the New Deal, but there is much work to be done to address 173,000 miles of the nation's highways and major roads that are in poor condition. The new infrastructure law also aims to help bring the 45,000 bridges which are also structurally deficient up to grade. 

An estimated 694 million metric tons (Mt) of total construction aggregates was produced and shipped for consumption in the United States in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 7% compared with that of the second quarter of 2020. 

Construction starts are cranking up coast to coast, and this is even before Congress passes the much-anticipated, massive infrastructure bill.

To succinctly sum up the state of the U.S. construction industry, you might say, “2020 bad, 2021 good!”

Our phones are ringing off the walls lately -- commercial tire dealers and construction and aggregates companies wanting Double Coin OTR tires! Residential construction is expected to be strong in 2021, and hopes are high for a substantial infrastructure spending bill.

If you're a mining or construction company, you know all too well that tires represent a significant chunk of your operating costs.

It's no surprise that C5 Equipment Rentals is discovering that Double Coin OTR tires are outlasting comparative Tier One brand tires.

Double good news on Double Coin OTR tires! We're getting rave reviews on the quality, and we have plenty of tariff-free tires in our North American warehouses.
