Designed for high-throughput processing, the Mars Mineral rCB pin mixer converts recovered Carbon Black from pyrolyzed ELTs into high-quality, ASTM-grade pellets for use in applications including paint and coatings, green tires, EV batteries, and more.

Robert Weibold – an internationally renowned expert in the field of tire recycling and tire pyrolysis – is speaking about rubber devulcanization market, trends and technology providers at Rubber Week 2026 in Vienna, Austria, on June 10 2026.

According to Circle Economy’s first estimate, the global economy loses around €25.4 trillion per year due to avoidable value loss associated with linear material use. This is equivalent to almost 31% of global Gross Domestic Product (GDP). In simple terms: for every €3 of economic value created, about €1 is lost through waste, inefficiency, premature disposal, energy losses, or asset deterioration.

The bridge paving project used a modified asphalt mix containing recycled tire rubber, highlighting how tire recycling can contribute to infrastructure development while supporting broader sustainability and circular economy goals.

Commissioned in 2023 as part of WasteServ’s broader site upgrade, the facility centers on Gradeall’s tire baling and handling systems, designed to process both passenger and commercial tires into compact, transport-ready bales for export to mainland recycling facilities.

The newly signed agreements establish potential commercial pathways for two of the facility’s primary output streams, recovered steel and tire-derived oil, subject to validation through initial production runs and laboratory analysis.

The certification confirms that FOR REC’s management systems align with internationally recognized standards covering occupational health, risk prevention, and continuous safety improvement as part of broader Quality, Health, Safety, and Environment (QHSE) practices.
