Tires keep the world moving. As tires turn, goods are delivered, people are transported, and plans are executed. But what happens when they are worn out and stop turning? Worldwide, more than 7 million tires are scrapped every day. In many parts of the world, they become a waste problem, as they are left to degrade in landfill sites – or are incinerated, emitting large amounts of CO2.
At Genan, we have turned the tire waste problem into a green opportunity. We recycle end-of-life tires (ELT) for reuse in a variety of ways. Every day, we can recycle up to 150,000 tires and reduce CO2 emission to the atmosphere by 280,000 MT a year – that’s the equivalent of what 100,000 diesel cars emit in one year. In short, the planet has a problem, and we have a solution. We keep tires turning in an ongoing circle of life – which makes a substantial difference for the well-being of Earth. We call that striving for a sustainable future.
Sustainability is at the core of what we do – but it is also at the core of how we do it. We constantly strive to minimize energy consumption in our recycling operations and to be as environmentally friendly as possible. And we believe in building sustainable relationships with our customers and business partners as well. We do that by committing to fundamental principles of transparency, the highest quality standards and an innovative drive. Learn More at genan.com
