Indian tire recyclers are stepping up efforts to meet the increasing demand for tire shred in the domestic market by expanding existing capacities and establishing new plants. This expansion includes setting up tire recycling units overseas to collect tires, process them into shreds, and then ship them back to India for further processing. India stands as the world's largest importer of scrap tires, with significant volumes being imported from Australia. Tyre Collection Australia, founded by Chetan Joshi in Melbourne in 2018, is one such player engaged in tire recycling.
