FAQs on tyre recycling Winchester

Q: Can't tyres go into landfill? A: Since 2006, when the EU Landfill Directive came into effect, the disposal of tyres in landfill sites has been entirely prohibited. This measure was implemented because tyres occupy a significant amount of space, and approximately 75 per cent of their volume is empty due to their shape and the substantial amount of air they contain. The inclusion of tyres in landfill sites led to quicker fill-up rates. Although shredded tyres were once deemed acceptable, the 2006 legislation enforced a complete ban, addressing space concerns and acknowledging the potential environmental damage caused by improperly disposed of tyres.

Q: What are the other benefits of correct tyre recycling? A: Effectively recycling your used tyres has the advantage of reducing the need to produce additional materials for rubber products. Companies can decrease future manufacturing requirements by utilising rubber from old tyres. An example of this is re-treading and refurbishing worn rubber to extend the life of old tyres. Opting for recycling presents a sustainable alternative, mitigating the necessity for large-scale production of new rubber, which can be environmentally detrimental.

Q: What are tyres used for? A: Tyres can be used for a multitude of products, including equestrian or sports pitches, carpet underlay, drainage systems, roof tiles, road and playground surfaces, and even laminate flooring!
