European, regional funding for Bolder Industries’ Antwerp ELT project

It may be behind schedule, but Bolder Industries is pressing ahead with plans to set up a pyrolysis facility in Antwerp for obtaining raw materials from end-of-life-tyres, and its efforts have been given a boost in the form of a 32 million euro grant by the European Commission through the EU Innovation Fund pilot programme. This is further supplemented by a 2 million euro grant from Belgium’s Flanders region. The funding will enable the construction of Bolder’s European facility at the Port of Antwerp, a plant capable of recycling over four million end-of-life tyres annually.
