Interactive
Workshops
This interactive workshop
will cover the progression of
the tire recycling industry and
explore what new markets
mean for manufacturers, dealers, distributors, suppliers
and other recyclers. Leaders
in the tire recycling industry
will explore the challenges
and opportunities tire recyclers and retreaders face to
maintain their economic
foothold, consistency in quality and quantity of raw materials and demand for finished
goods. This session will discuss how creating markets are
vital to the overall health of
the tire industry and how
changes in new tire compounds, materials, construction and design impact scrap
tire processing and recycled
rubber markets.
