For over 40 years we have supplied recycled rubber back into the industry. With our own rubber crumb and granulation facility we offer a full recycling service. We are able to collect cured scrap rubber, grind it to whatever size is wanted, and supply it back in whatever packaging is required.

Time and again we prove that we can, not only reduce the amount of cured rubber waste going into landfill, but can also show that there are huge economic and technical benefits to be gained.

In addition to supplying rubber crumb and rubber reclaim, we also offer pigments, processing aids such as waxes, fillers such as calcium carbonates, silicones including silicone fluids and emulsions, as well as other speciality chemicals.
