Rubber recycling is the process of reusing and repurposing rubber materials, primarily from used tires and other rubber products. This process helps reduce waste in landfills and minimizes the environmental impact of rubber disposal. The recycled rubber can be transformed into various products, such as rubber mats, playground surfaces, and asphalt for roads. The recycling process typically involves shredding the rubber into smaller pieces, removing any metal components, and then grinding it into granules or powder. These recycled materials can then be used in manufacturing new products, contributing to a circular economy and promoting sustainability in industries that rely on rubber, such as automotive and construction.
