From Concept to Completion – Next Generation Tyre Recycling

Van Aarsen, a leading turnkey project supplier has introduced “Next Generation” tyre recycling systems for the production of tyre derived value added rubber powders and granules. Van Aarsen became involved in Tyre Recycling during the early eighties when a former employee took the first steps in tyre recycling. When leaving the diversification strategy in the late eighties their roads split.

Re-entering the tyre recycling market is consistent with Van Aarsen’s strategy to provide custom made solutions from concept to completion. At the beginning of 2004, Van Aarsen acquired Konings Rubber Technology B.V.; another leading turnkey project supplier for the tyre recycling industry. The acquisition of Konings Rubber Technology B.V., with its impressive reference list, formed the starting point of the development of the two companies’ “Tyre Recycling Systems of the Future.”

It is Van Aarsen’s philosophy to apply exclusively designed machines and systems to the complicated process of recycling tyres. An innovation programme called “Next Generation” recycling systems is in its round up testing and implementation phase. According to the company, the progress made in quality output, efficiency, flexibility, maintenance and durability show great promise for future tyre recycling professionals.
