Nile flood season (August-October) demand increased by 30%



Egyptian market for the special demand for brake pads
Egypt's unique driving environment places stringent demands on the braking system:

Extreme climate: Cairo summer heat up to 45°C, Alexandria high humidity accelerates corrosion
Complex road conditions: from the congested streets of Cairo to the desert scenic roads of Giza
Vehicle composition: The proportion of older models is high (the average age is 12 years), and the durability requirements are higher
Economic factors: Currency depreciation increases price sensitivity.

Differences between geographical environment and urban demand
Cairo road characteristics: 80% urban roads, 20% ring expressway, the average daily congestion time is 3.5 hours.

Product requirements: special formulas for frequent start and stop.
Market data: The replacement cycle is only 15,000-20,000 kilometers, and taxis account for 40%.
Alexandria: The Mediterranean climate > 70% humidity.
Core requirement: Drainage-enhancing design.
Giza regional characteristics: the pyramid scenic area is densely packed with heavy-duty tourist buses, and the dust weather is 90 days a year.
