A Swedish tire pyrolysis equipment manufacturer and operator Scandinavian Enviro Systems and the French global tire manufacturer Michelin, have extended the letter of intent regarding a strategic partnership which was announced in April 2020. Initially the parties expected that a final agreement would have been reached by mid-year 2020, but the negotiations have been somewhat delayed, partly due to the ongoing pandemic. Therefore, Enviro and Michelin are prolonging the letter of intent until the end of October this year where both companies assess that they will be able to provide more details at the latest. Simultaneously the exclusivity agreement is also prolonged until October 31 this year.

On the 9th of July, ZARE (Zertifizierte Altreifen Entsorger) – a German end-of-life tire collection and recycling organization, announced launching a new platform to promote and facilitate end-of-life tire recycling in Germany. Aiming primarily at small and medium-sized enterprises involved in the end-of-life tire recycling, ZARE and BRV made a big step towards realizing a new platform.

Four packages are presented on the new website giving clear explanations, which can be supported by onsite visits and the technical expertise of the UK team.

When it comes to tire recycling, it appears well-known that proper end-of-life tire (ELT) recycling techniques are utterly important for proper recovery of valuable materials and their reuse. However, it is equally important to: 1) Understand the life cycle of the end-of-life tire materials, 2) Assess footprint of different types of recycling / recovery on environment and quantifying and 3) Qualitatively and quantitively assess the effect that material and energy flows of a given product have on our communities, our planet, our health, economies, and the way we live. As a specialized consulting company, Weibold is competent in carrying out Life Cycle Assessment for circular economy concepts involving end-of-life tire recycling and pyrolysis products.
