For OTR retread plants, OTR tire manufacturers and OTR tire service companies

OTR Tire Recycling

We buy the scrap that OTR tire retreading and manufacturing leave behind: buffings, nuggets, peels and trims, OTR tires cut into small pieces, and uncured natural rubber compound. Earthmover, mining, loader, grader, port and large agricultural tires. No whole OTR tires.

Who we buy from

Every OTR retread plant makes scrap rubber. We buy all of it.

OTR retread plants buff, skive and trim every casing before it gets new tread, and they cut and peel what cannot be retreaded. OTR tire manufacturers make trims, vents, rejects and off-spec compound. Nearly all of it is natural rubber, and it has value.

We work with OTR retreaders and repair shops, OTR and large agricultural tire manufacturers, and mining, quarry, construction and port tire service companies, across the USA and Canada.

Whole OTR tires are not part of it: cut them into small pieces first, or send us the buffings, peels and trims.
