Pyrolyx AG has signed a joint development agreement with an international tire manufacturer. Under the agreement, the new grades of recovered carbon black (rCB) will be developed to enable broader use of rCB in various tire applications. Another aim of the partnership is to explore further application options for pyrolysis oil in order to improve the environmental footprint of the technology.

Both partners join forces in the believe that the pyrolysis technology offers more potential than is realized in converting end of life tires and rubber waste into valuable material for new tire production. An agreement of this type is currently unique and confirms the Pyrolyx Group's technological pole position in the recovery of carbon black from scrap tires. This long-term development partnership is an excellent basis for the growing international sale of Pyrolyx rCB.

In the agreement, the two companies affirm their research commitment to a closed recycling loop - from scrap tires to new tires - as their sustainable contribution to reducing CO2 emissions and conserving fossil resources.
