The Australian Flexible Pavement Association (AfPA), in collaboration with Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA), has released a new national model specification for crumb rubber modified asphalt used on local government roads. The Crumb Rubber Modified Dense Graded Asphalt (CRM DGA) Model Specification – Light to Medium Duty Roads reflects a coordinated effort to provide clearer guidance for councils seeking to use crumb rubber in road construction and maintenance.

The Tire Recycling Foundation (TRF) announced the theme for the 10th Tire Recycling Conference, happening May 12-14, 2026, in Denver, Colorado. The theme, “Tread Boldly: Advancing Tire Recycling Through Collective Innovation,” reflects a growing focus and shared commitment on transforming end-of-life tire (ELT) management into a fully circular, sustainable system through bold collective action, cutting-edge research and innovation.

On 1 October 2025, the Institute for Ecology of Industrial Areas (IETU) hosted an international workshop in Katowice on the use of recycled tyre materials in road construction. The event, titled “The Use of Recyclates from Tyre Processing in Road Construction: Rubberised Asphalt Applications,” brought together over 50 participants from ten European countries, including representatives from industry, research institutions, certification bodies, and local governments.

The REMADE Institute®, a division of the Sustainable Manufacturing Innovation Alliance Corp., today issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit both technology development projects and technology demonstration projects that will increase the reuse, remanufacturing/retreading, or recycling of end-of-life tires (ELT) generated in New York State.

The Tire and Rubber Association of Canada (TRAC) announced the program for the 2025 Rubber Recycling Symposium that will take place October 8–9 in Calgary, Alberta. Recognized as a cornerstone event for professionals across the tire and rubber recycling sector, the Symposium brings together industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to advance sustainable solutions and foster collaboration.

The U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association (USTMA) and its member companies applaud the introduction of the Innovative Mitigation Partnerships for Asphalt and Concrete Technologies (IMPACT) Act, H.R. 1534, and its complement, IMPACT Act 2.0, H.R.2122, both introduced by U.S. Representatives Valerie Foushee (NC-04) and Max Miller (OH-07). The bills promote research and deployment of innovative pavement technologies, including rubber modified asphalt (RMA), which delivers proven economic, environmental and performance benefits.

Tennessee is seeing positive results from test strips of rubber modified asphalt (RMA) on roadways in Blount County. The 3.3 miles of road in the county paved with RMA last year are demonstrating greater longevity with reduced road noise and water splash back, in addition to diverting thousands of end-of-life tires from the waste stream.

The U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association (USTMA) has reported a 10.5% increase in the utilization of end-of-life tires (ELTs) in its latest End-of-Life Tire Management Report. With 79% of ELTs now repurposed in end-use markets, tires continue to rank among the most recycled consumer products, surpassing materials like aluminum, paper, and plastic. USTMA attributes this progress to decades of industry collaboration and innovation, which have contributed to a 95% reduction in tire stockpiles.
