Turn waste into reusable materials with a tyre recycling plant

Objective

Sharjah National Rubber Industries wanted to process different kinds of tyres, including car and truck tyres, without de-beading and at a high capacity. They also wanted to be able to produce different output material sizes. They were looking for strong, reliable technology to produce the best quality products for a long time. In 2004, Sharjah National Rubber Industries acquired an ELDAN turn-key tyre recycling plant with capacity up to 4 tonnes per production hour. The tyre recycling plant is designed for recycling of complete passenger car and truck tyres, including super singles and tractor tyres, to a high quality rubber granulate of various sizes. The output material is 99,9 % free of liberated steel wire and textile.

Solutions

After a thorough market analysis, Sharjah National Rubber Industries decided on partnering with ELDAN. “There were two main reasons for choosing ELDAN equipment for our tyre recycling plant. Firstly, they manufacture long-life, strong machines that can handle recycling of tyres without de-beading. Not debeading the tyres saves us a lot of time and money” says Tariq.

“Secondly, having the capability to meet the demand for uniform quality and purity is important, but the flexibility of the plant and being able to change the production from one fraction size to another is also paramount. We are producing according to customers’ orders, and as such, a multisize plant was the right solution to meet our customers’ demands.”
