Fornnax receives AIRIA Special Export Award for 2025–26
Fornnax Technology has received the Special Export Award for 2025–26 from the All India Rubber Industries Association, recognizing the company’s export performance and growing international presence in recycling machinery. The award was presented during AIRIA’s annual event and highlights Fornnax’s role as an India-based manufacturer supplying shredding and recycling systems to customers in overseas markets. The company develops equipment for processing end-of-life tires, municipal solid waste, cables, e-waste and other difficult material streams, with tire recycling remaining one of its core application areas. Fornnax said the recognition reflects its expanding global footprint, continued investment in engineering and manufacturing, and efforts to position Indian recycling technology in international markets.

AIRIA recognizes Fornnax’s export performance
The Special Export Award was presented by the All India Rubber Industries Association as part of its 2025–26 industry recognition program. AIRIA represents companies across India’s rubber sector and uses its annual awards to acknowledge business performance, innovation and contribution to the industry.
Fornnax said the award reflects the company’s growing export activity and its ability to compete internationally with recycling machinery designed and manufactured in India.
Company supplies recycling systems to global markets
Fornnax exports shredders and recycling equipment to customers across several international regions, including Europe, the Middle East, Asia and other markets. Its machinery is used for processing challenging waste streams that require heavy-duty size reduction and controlled material preparation.
End-of-life tire recycling is a major part of the company’s equipment portfolio, alongside applications in municipal solid waste, cable recycling, e-waste and alternative fuel preparation.
Tire recycling remains central application area
Fornnax develops primary and secondary shredding systems used to reduce waste tires into smaller fractions for downstream processing. Depending on the recycling route, shredded tire material can be prepared for crumb rubber production, tire-derived fuel, tire-derived aggregate, pyrolysis feedstock or other recovery applications.
Reliable shredding performance is critical in tire recycling because end-of-life tires combine rubber, steel and textile reinforcement and require robust equipment capable of maintaining throughput under abrasive operating conditions.
Export growth supports international expansion strategy
The company has been increasing its international presence through equipment installations, trade exhibitions and distributor and customer relationships. Fornnax has positioned export markets as an important component of its growth strategy and continues to target regions investing in new waste management and tire recycling infrastructure.
The AIRIA recognition supports that positioning by highlighting the company’s export contribution within the Indian rubber and recycling equipment sector.
Engineering and manufacturing remain key focus areas
Fornnax attributes its export development to continued investment in engineering, machine design and manufacturing capabilities. The company develops high-capacity shredding systems intended for industrial recycling plants where uptime, wear resistance and operating cost are key considerations.
Its recent product development has included larger-capacity secondary and fine shredders for tire recycling, alternative fuel preparation and other demanding waste processing applications.
Award reflects broader growth of Indian recycling technology
The recognition also reflects the increasing role of Indian manufacturers in global recycling equipment markets. As countries expand tire recycling, waste processing and circular economy infrastructure, demand is growing for industrial machinery capable of handling complex material streams at commercial scale.
For Fornnax, the Special Export Award reinforces its strategy of combining domestic manufacturing with international market development and positions the company for further expansion in tire recycling and waste processing equipment.
