FAQ

Common questions about Rubber / Tyre Recycling

What are the main products from tyre recycling?

Crumb rubber (various mesh sizes), reclaimed rubber, steel wire, and nylon fibre. Each has different markets and pricing. Our materials cover the economics of each product stream.

Is crumb rubber used in road construction?

Yes — rubberized bitumen (CRMB) is increasingly used for road surfaces in India. Government mandates are expanding, but adoption varies by state. Our reports cover the market development status.

What capacity should I plan for?

Typical plants process 10-50 tonnes per day of waste tyres. Our reports provide capacity planning frameworks based on local tyre availability and target product mix.

How do I source waste tyres?

Retreaders, fleet operators, tyre dealers, and municipal corporations are primary sources. Our materials cover collection network design and procurement strategies.
