Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Raw material price volatility
Fluctuations in rubber and textile prices can erode margins; lock‑in rates or maintain buffer stock.
Compliance with safety standards
Tyre manufacturing involves hazardous chemicals; ensure proper safety gear, ventilation, and waste disposal to meet regulatory norms.
Market saturation and price competition
Local tyre producers may drive prices down; differentiate through quality, branding, or niche markets.
Skilled labour requirement
Need trained operators for moulding and vulcanisation; invest in training or hire experienced staff.
