Description
Used Tyre Scrap consists of discarded tires that are no longer fit for use on vehicles but still contain valuable materials that can be repurposed. These tires typically undergo a recycling process where they are shredded or cut into smaller pieces to make them easier to handle and repurpose. Used Tyre Scrap sourced from Germany is collected in compliance with local environmental regulations, ensuring that they are free from harmful substances before they enter the recycling chain. The scrap is processed into various forms, such as shredded rubber, crumb rubber, or other by-products that can be used in industrial applications.
Application:
Used Tyre Scrap is widely used in several industries due to its material properties and versatility:
- Recycling: Used as raw material for producing recycled rubber products, including mats, playground surfaces, and rubberized asphalt.
- Rubberized Asphalt: Ground-up tire rubber is used in road construction to enhance the durability and performance of asphalt.
- Energy Recovery: Used Tyre Scrap can be burned in controlled environments for energy recovery, providing heat for industrial processes or power generation.
- Manufacturing: The rubber material is used in the production of new rubber goods such as footwear, seals, and automotive parts.
- Landfill Alternatives: Processed tyres are sometimes used in land reclamation, embankment construction, or erosion control.
- Civil Engineering: Used for creating drainage systems, barriers, and soundproofing in construction projects.
