Driving Home Sustainable Solutions

We are super excited to be expanding our footprint and capabilities across Australia to help drive better environmental outcomes on the back of the upcoming ban on the export of whole-baled tyres in December this year.

We are particularly delighted to be partnering the NSW and Federal Governments with the securing of a further $2.9 million in funding as Stage 2 to support a $5.9 million addition to the recently completed Stage 1 of a new plant at Erskine Park. The new addition will allow further broadening of the value added products made in our NSW facilities and further support to COAG ban on the export of whole baled tyres.

Tyrecycle is also gearing up for further expansion to its footprint in Perth, and the Pilbara this year with support coming from the Recycling Modernisation Fund. We’re establishing a new plant in Port Hedland under the management of Kariyarra Tyrecycle (KTC) to provide an end-to-end solution for the mining sector, enabling the processing off-the-road (OTR) mining tyres and conveyor belts.

We’re also delighted to be expanding our existing Perth plant to enhance our capabilities and create greater environmental impact. Tyrecycle CEO Jim Fairweather says funding from both State and Federal Governments will be transformational in delivering strong environmental outcomes, while also providing an economic and jobs boost. “We’re delighted to be partnering with Government to embrace waste as a resource instead of a problem and will continue to drive innovative solutions for progressing Australia’s transition to a circular economy.” “It demonstrates a real confidence in the innovation of the resource recovery sector and its commitment to driving sustainable solutions to long-standing waste management issues.”
