We make tires & rubber circular

The CRs™ technology transforms the rubber industry from a linear to a circular industry

 
 
  • CRs™ is a proprietary technology that transforms end-of-life tire rubber crumb into a fully circular, decarbonized rubber material.

  • By turning ~85% of the total tire (excluding only steel and fabric), into cryogenic rubber powder and combining it with the CRs™ activator, we can replace more than 50% of virgin material in a tire, which is mostly fossil material.

  • The CRs™ system allows previously vulcanized rubber crumbs to become chemically reactivated to create a new compounding material.

  • CRs™ can be used with any vulcanized rubber crumbs: SBR, PBR, IR, Butyl, EPDM.

  • Products produced with CRs™ can be recycled over and over again - 10 recycles showed no degrading in tests.

 
 

Cost advantages and no additional CAPEX for tire manufacturers

  • The CRs™ process uses standard industry tire manufacturing machinery and requires no new capital investment.

  • CRs™ reduces curing time in manufacturing by 10-20%.

  • Recycled rubber from End-of-life tires does not need to be de-vulcanized.

  • CRs™ rubber cost is at par with virgin rubber.

 
 

performance improvement compared to today’s materials

  • Proven technology tested with leading tire manufacturers.

  • >2 million kilometers of road-testing show 10%+ improved abrasion resistance.

  • Extensive testing demonstrates 10-20% improved rolling resistance.

 
 
 

CRs™ ROAD TO CIRCULAR TIRES

 
 
  • 23% recycled CRs™ compound - verified and road-tested.

  • 67% recycled CRs™ compound - in lab tests.

  • 90% recycled CRs™ compound - enabling the zero-emission tire combined with smaller share of NR, rCB, and bio-SBR.
