Tyres are essential to modern life, but when they reach the end of their use, they often become a major environmental problem. Every year, billions of tyres are discarded — many ending up in landfills, open fields, or illegal dumps.

Tyre recycling is the process of converting waste tyres into reusable materials like crumb rubber, tire-derived fuel (TDF), or pyrolysis oil. This process reduces pollution, saves energy, and supports a sustainable circular economy.Tyres are essential to modern life, but when they reach the end of their use, they often become a major environmental problem.

📊 Global Waste Tyre Statistic

The scale of Tyre waste is enormous — and growing. Here are some eye-opening statistics:

• • 1.5 billion tyres are discarded globally every year.

• • About 70% are recovered or recycled, while 30% (450 million tyres) still end up dumped or burned.

• • The U.S. alone discards around 290 million Tyres annually.

• • The European Union generates approximately 3.4 million Tonnes of waste Tyres every year.

• • By 2030, global tyre waste could exceed 2 billion units if better recycling systems aren’t established.

These numbers show that waste Tyre recycling is no longer optional, it’s a global necessity.

Environmental Dangers of Waste Tyres

Discarded Tyres don’t just take up space; they harm the planet in multiple ways:

• • Tyre fires release toxic gases and can burn for weeks.

• • Stagnant tyres collect rainwater, becoming breeding grounds for mosquitoes and disease.

• • Slow decomposition: Tyres can take hundreds of years to break down.

• • Soil and water contamination: Chemicals leach into the ground, polluting ecosystems.

Without proper Tyre waste management, these risks will only grow.

🌱 The Benefits of Tyre Recycling

Recycling tyres gives new life to old materials while reducing pollution and conserving energy. Here’s how:

• • Crumb Rubber: Used in playgrounds, running tracks, and road asphalt.

• • Tire-Derived Fuel (TDF): An energy-efficient alternative for cement kilns and industries.

• • Pyrolysis Oil and Carbon Black: Reused in manufacturing and energy production.

• • Recycled Rubber Products: Flooring tiles, mats, and insulation materials.

That’s a direct win for the environment and industry alike.

🌎 The Future Is Circular and It Starts with Action

At PureRecycle LLC, we believe that sustainability starts with responsibility. By collecting, trading, and recycling Tyres ethically, we help turn waste into opportunity.

Together, we can build roads to a cleaner, greener world.
