Can you make money with scrap tyres?
With the right tire shredding equipment and a solid recycling system in place, even small operations can turn scrap tires into a profitable and scalable business model. From TDF to crumb rubber, each product represents a unique opportunity to create value from waste. One consideration is that rubber has undergone a process called vulcanization, which means that rubber, unlike aluminum or glass, cannot simply be melted down and reused. In using scrap tire in new tires, it is generally used in the less critical parts of the tire.When an old tyre is taken for recycling, it will often be shredded into small pieces. These shredded can then be used as raw material in various applications for road construction, or as filling material on pavements, playgrounds, or sports areas.
