Tire Retreading

Analysis

NAICS 326212 is the 2022 national industry for tire retreading, part of 32621 (Tire Manufacturing). Census lists 4 example activities under it in the official index.

County Business Patterns counts 331 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 6,615 people at an average annual payroll of $54,295 per employee (23rd percentile of national industries). 26% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.

By establishments it ranks 1st of the 2 codes at this level within Tire Manufacturing, with 72.1% of them.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 10% and employment rose 5%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.

Its index entries, the activities Census uses to assign businesses to this code, include rebuilding tires, recapping tires, retreading tires and tire retreading, recapping or rebuilding.

Its goods appear in 13 statistical lines of the US tariff schedule, mostly under headings 4012 (retreaded or used pneumatic tires of rubber; solid or…). That link is how import data is matched to domestic producers, for example in trade-remedy cases.
