Welcome!
This page offers you a general introduction to scrap tire processing and rubber recycling. The technology and the know-how to turn a potentially hazardous waste material into a valuable resource, is available today.
In the past years, a
number of important developments occurred in the scrap tire and rubber
recycling industry:
-
An EU-directive bans the landfilling of scrap tires. Similar legislation is in effect in most States of the USA.
-
Higher oil and gas prices led turned tire derived fuel (TDF) into a sought-after fuel substitute.
-
In the past four years, the price of natural rubber (NR) increased sharply. Consequently, the demand for recycled and reclaimed tire rubber also rose.
-
Newly developed devlulcanization methods make it possible to turn ground tire rubber (crumb rubber) and factory scrap into material that can be re-used as replacement for virgin material in the conventional rubber manufacturing industry.
