The European Union has made the transition to more sustainable mobility, one of its top priorities. Adopted in April 2024, the Euro 7 regulation represents a major step forward, by introducing, for the first time, particle emission thresholds for tire wear — a measure Michelin fully supports.

Dave Abdallah of Abdallah Consulting will present “Understanding the Value of Recovered Carbon Black (rCB)” at the 2025 Global Polymer Summit, taking place at the Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland, Ohio, on September 9. The session will run from 1:30 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. and will be moderated by Denise Kennedy of DK Enterprises.

Tyre-to-tyre recycling is still more of an exception than the rule. Yet new technologies are proving it can be done. One of the most ambitious initiatives in this space is BlackCycle, an EU-funded project that set out to build a fully circular value chain — from end-of-life tyre collection to the production of new tyres. In an interview with Waste Management World, Jean-Michel Douarre, BlackCycle Consortium Director and research program leader on sustainable raw materials at Michelin, shared how the project came to life, what it has achieved, and why it matters for the future of sustainable mobility.

Following a successful edition in 2024, Sustainability in Tires will once again take place in Shanghai this September. As the region’s premier event dedicated to advancing sustainability across the tire value chain, the 2025 edition will feature two days of expert presentations, technical case studies, and in-depth discussions on sustainable materials, circular economy, decarbonization, green manufacturing, and more.

Murfitts Industries and tyre giant Michelin have announced a project to process old tyres, recovering the energy and materials within them. As part of the project, Murfitts, the UK’s largest tyre recycling company, has submitted plans to set up a tyre reprocessing site at Michelin’s Stoke-on-Trent premises. The “cutting-edge” process developed by Murfitts will reportedly generate energy which will be used to power Michelin’s production on site, thereby lowering CO2 emissions from the factory by 1,500 tonnes per year. In addition to the energy recovered, the process will also produce recovered carbon black (rCB) and tyre pyrolysis oil (TPO).

Innovando’s Sustainability Director, Cveta Majtanovic, spoke at the conference on the RFID ecosystem in tires at Autopromotec. Innovando was present at the RFID Ecosystem Village in collaboration with leading industry partners to showcase the Digital Tyre Platform
