From casing to compound.
Rubber, steel and textile recovered from end-of-life tyres, plus the oil and carbon black that come out of pyrolysis. Select a product for its tradeable grades and specifications.
The tyre chain
A tyre is not one material. It is rubber, steel and textile bonded together, and recovery is the business of separating them cleanly enough that each has a buyer. What a casing becomes is decided by how it is cut.
End-of-life casings
TradePassenger, truck and off-road tyres collected from fitters, fleets and municipal sites.

Where it goes
The forms we trade, the industries that consume them, and what they become.
Tyre-derived fuel (TDF)
Substitutes coal and petcoke in the kiln. The bead wire reports to the clinker as iron feed, so effectively the whole tyre is consumed.
Crumb rubber & granulate
Artificial turf infill, running tracks and wet-pour safety surfacing; rubber-modified asphalt; mats, pavers, speed bumps and railway crossing pads.
Rubber powder (<0.8mm)
Blended back into new compound as partial replacement for virgin rubber, and into seals, hoses and mouldings.
Recovered steel wire
Charged to the electric arc furnace as scrap, or cleaned and cut for use as blasting abrasive.
Textile fibre
Refuse-derived fuel, and bulk fill in insulation and drainage applications.
Tyre pyrolysis oil (TPO)
Blended as industrial fuel, or taken as feedstock where the sulphur, water and sediment allow.
Recovered carbon black (rCB)
Partial replacement for virgin N-series carbon black in compound, and pigment or filler duty in plastics, coatings and inks.
Baled & whole casings
Embankment fill and retaining structures; roadworthy part-worn casings into re-use markets where legally permitted.
Nothing in the chain has to be waste. The limit is separation quality — rubber carrying steel, or granulate carrying textile, loses its buyer and ends up stored or landfilled.
Recovered Rubber
Steel- and textile-free rubber fractions sized to the buyer's application, from coarse infill granulate down to fine powder for compounding.
Fuel & Feedstock
Sized shred and baled casings for kilns, boilers and further processing. Sold on calorific value, wire content and sizing.
Pyrolysis Products
The output of thermal conversion — pyrolysis oil, recovered carbon black and steel wire, each traded on its own analysis.
Second-Hand Tyres for Re-Use
Whole casings that still have service life. Sourced from the EU, Japan and China, and sold into re-use and retreading markets in the EU, Latin America, Africa and the USA — sorted, inspected and graded before shipment, and only where part-worn sale is permitted.
