Recovered Carbon Black Asia 2026 returns this September, bringing together leading tire manufacturers, pyrolysis companies, rCB producers, carbon black suppliers, chemical companies from across the global value chain.

Taking place on 3-4 September 2026 in Bangkok, Thailand, the conference will explore the latest developments shaping the rCB industry, with a strong focus on market trends, application, commercial value and material quality.

As demand for sustainable raw materials continues to grow, the industry is increasingly focused on improving rCB quality consistency, scaling production, and expanding applications beyond traditional markets. Recovered Carbon Black Asia 2026 will provide a platform for industry leaders to share insights, technical papers, and real-world case studies to support circular economy goals.

Day One: Global Market Trends, Application, Commercial Value

Co-located with Sustainability in Tires 2026, Recovered Carbon Black Asia 2026 will kick off with a joint session on the morning of Day One, uniting both event communities from the start. A shared networking area across the two-day conference will further enhance conversations and business development opportunities.

The conference will feature keynote presentations and a global market overview from Michelin, Eco Infinic, Notch Consulting and other industry leaders, highlighting key market developments and the future outlook for recovered carbon black. Key topics include:

  • Regenerated carbon technology(Cabot Corporation)
  • Translating sustainability into scalable commercial value(Birla Carbon)
  • Commercial roadmap for rCB in Southeast Asia market(Shine Carbon and Chemicals)
  • Commercial scale pyrolysis chamber design & rCB performance in tire compounds
  • Asia-Pacific tire market: current situation and 5-years outlook
  • Impact of rCB source on the performance of EPDM rubber compounds(Standard Profil)

Day Two: Technological Innovations, TPO, Advancing Quality

The second day will focus on technologies, innovations, tire pyrolysis oil (TPO), and quality control to support tire recycling. RCB Nanotechnologies will present innovations in upgrading pyrolysis by-products into high-purity recovered carbon black suitable for demanding tire applications.

A featured panel discussion, "rCB Fight Night: Scale vs Performance," will bring together industry experts to discuss whether the market rewards premium-grade rCB, the trade-offs between volume and performance, the role of technical specifications such as ash content, and who ultimately benefits from product upgrading.

The conference agenda also covers key topics including:

  • Global tire & recovered carbon black market overview
  • Scaling rCB in Asia market
  • Innovations in rCB pelletising equipment optimisation
  • Upgrading rCB for tire applications
  • Evaluating market opportunities in Asia markets for Manufacturers

    Quality consistency and performance optimization

    And more
