According to the European Recycling Industries’ Confederation (EuRIC), in the EU, almost 95% of end-of-life tyres (ELT) are currently collected and treated due to effective waste tyre management systems, largely driven by extended producer responsibility (EPR) schemes and recycling investments. However, there has been a lack of EU policies to enhance the circularity of raw materials from ELT over the past two decades. The rubber recycling market faces regulatory challenges, leading to uncertainty for tyre recyclers and hindering innovation and investment. A regulatory framework is necessary to promote material circularity in tyres and develop sustainable applications, maximising environmental benefits and reducing reliance on natural resources.

After a break, the TRAC Rubber Recycling Symposium returned to its biennial schedule with an October conference in Nova Scotia. TRAC's President and CEO, Carol Hochu, emphasized the collective journey toward sustainability as the central theme of the event. Hosted by Divert NS in Nova Scotia, the symposium delved into sustainability rather than mere recycling, with Divert NS CEO Stacy Breau spotlighting the province's successful stewardship program boasting an 88.5% recovery rate. The recovered material finds application in road construction and engineering projects, with the aim to shift from recycling to a waste reduction approach.

The Traction Summit in Charlotte, North Carolina, brought together key players in the tire and automotive industries to discuss sustainable mobility and the journey toward net-zero emissions. Michelin shared its target to achieve net-zero scope 1 and 2 emissions and develop fully recyclable tires by 2050, while Continental aims for 40% sustainable tire content by 2030, moving to 100% by 2050. Presenters highlighted that Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) in the U.S. is expected to advance as the need for tire recycling solutions grows.
