Demystifying Tyre Recycling

Old Tyre Value is an independent educational platform, dedicated to providing clear, unbiased information on tyre recycling processes. We focus on factual breakdowns of industrial techniques and circular economy applications, empowering communities and businesses with actionable knowledge.

We delve into the core science of rubber reclamation, from advanced shredding and granulation to devulcanization techniques. Our content explores the mechanical processes, chemical transformations, and engineering principles that convert discarded tyres into valuable secondary materials like crumb rubber and rubberized asphalt.

Understanding the initial phase, where used tyres are gathered and meticulously sorted by type and condition, preparing them for efficient industrial processing.

Detailed analysis of the mechanical shredding and granulation processes that reduce whole tyres into various sizes of crumb rubber and steel-free granulate.

Exploring advanced techniques like devulcanization and pyrolysis, which transform rubber into new products, fostering a true circular economy for tyre materials.
