The report, titled Review of Regulatory and Licence Requirements for the Management of Waste Mining Tyres in Western Australia, New South Wales & Queensland, assessed how waste mining tires are managed under current regulatory and licensing frameworks. It focused on major Australian mining states where large OTR tires are widely used and where end-of-life management can be complex because of tire size, remote mine locations and established on-site disposal practices.

The Australian Tyre Recyclers Association (ATRA) has released a new video highlighting opportunities to improve the recovery and recycling of off-the-road mining tires in Australia. ATRA said new opportunities are available for miners and OTR tire manufacturers to increase resource recovery and direct more mining tires into established recycling pathways. Kelman said ATRA members are able to collect tires from mining regions across Australia and process them into materials and products for domestic use and export.

Operating in the Moscow region since 2012, the company is described as the country’s largest tire recycler and currently employs more than 300 local residents. According to Ekaterina Zinovieva, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Moscow Region and Minister of Investment, Industry and Science, over ₽1 billion was invested in 2025 to expand collection infrastructure and related facilities. The new oversized tire processing line alone required ₽200 million in capital expenditure.

A comprehensive new report released today by Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) has found that Australia's tyre circular economy will not grow without mandatory participation in a product stewardship scheme. The Tyre Supply Chain Analysis: Opportunities to grow Australia's circular economy for tyres report identifies critical constraints across the entire tyre supply chain that are preventing Australia from meeting its circular economy targets.

Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) reports that Australia’s mining sector is beginning to play a more active role in advancing tire recycling initiatives, addressing one of the most complex challenges in the circular economy: the management of massive off-the-road (OTR) mining tires at end of life. TSA has highlighted Rio Tinto’s recent tire recycling trial as a strong example of how innovation and commitment can unlock new solutions for mining tires, which are notoriously difficult to process due to their size, steel content, and remote operating locations.

In Episode 85 of The Tyre Recycling Podcast, Tommaso Verri of RubberJet Group discusses the company’s high-pressure water-jetting technology, presented during the Round Trip Tyre and Conveyor Belt Recycling Summit in Melbourne. The process uses kinetic energy to delaminate tyres, producing wire-free, high-surface-area rubber powder as an alternative to conventional ambient shredding.

On November 17, 2025, Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) and Tyrewise New Zealand (Tyrewise) announced the formation of the Trans-Tasman Tyre Recycling Alliance (TTRA), a groundbreaking regional body dedicated to advancing circular economy outcomes for end-of-life tyres across Australia and New Zealand. Jointly funded by TSA and Tyrewise, the alliance will operate as an independent entity, while both founding organisations maintain their separate national schemes. TTRA’s mission is to foster regional collaboration, drive innovation, facilitate knowledge exchange, and elevate industry standards initially across the Tasman region, with plans to expand engagement to our pacific neighbours in the near future.

CTS Tyre Recycling is strengthening Australia’s circular economy by moving beyond traditional recycling toward full-scale remanufacturing of rubber products. Based in Neerabup, Western Australia, the company and its manufacturing arm Throughcycle Rubber are part of the Cometti Group, a family-owned business with more than 40 years of experience in the tyre industry.

Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) has released its 2024–25 Annual Report, themed Cultivating Connections, celebrating collaboration across industries to advance the circular tyre economy in Australia. The report reflects growing partnerships between manufacturers, recyclers, researchers, mining companies, and local governments, all contributing to stronger circular outcomes for end-of-life tyres.
