Until now, the certification value of ELT-derived TPO has often been discussed primarily in terms of its biogenic share. This share is primarily linked to natural rubber used in tires and can be supported by 14C testing. That pathway remains relevant. But it did not fully address the larger commercial question: what about the fossil carbon in tires that is not bio-based, but is nevertheless recovered from a waste stream?
