WE SUPPORT THE “CIRCLULAR ECONOMY”
FOR THE FUTURE!
A circular economy is an economic system powered by eliminating waste and the continual use of resources. This regenerative approach is in contrast to the traditional linear economy, which has a "take, make, dispose" model of production.
WHY A CIRCULAR ECONOMY IS THE SUPERIOR SOLUTION
A circular economy is an economic system aimed at eliminating waste and the continual use of resources. Circular systems reduce, reuse, repair, remanufacturing and recycling to create a close-loop system, lowering the use of resource inputs and the creation of waste, pollution and carbon emissions. The circular economy aims to keep products, equipment and infrastructure in use for longer, improving the productivity of these resources.
All "waste" should become "food" for another process: either a by-product or recovered resource for another industrial process or as regenerative resources for nature. This regenerative approach is in contrast to the traditional linear economy, which has a "take, make, dispose" model of production.
Through our work at TireCore, we know that a “cradle to cradle” business model does not mean a drop in quality for consumers and can be achieved without loss of revenue or extra costs for manufacturers. Our circular business model is as profitable as linear models and allows consumers to continue enjoying similar products and services with less environmental impact.
Moving towards a more circular economy delivers benefits like reducing pressure on the environment, improving the security of the supply of raw materials, increasing competitiveness, stimulating innovation, boosting economic growth, and creating jobs.
How Retreading fits in the Circular Economy
Retreading is very environmentally friendly. It reduces the use of oil and other raw materials in tire production and reuses materials that otherwise would have been in the landfill for hundreds of years.
OIL - Retreading conserves oil. The synthetic rubber components in a new passenger tire contain seven to eight gallons of oil. Retreading the same tires uses only two to three gallons of oil! The manufacture of a new medium truck tire requires approximately 22 gallons of oil, but it takes only seven gallons to retread. Every year in North America, the use of retreads saves hundreds of millions of gallons of oil.
LANDFILL - Millions of tires that would end up in tire piles or in landfill continue their useful lives for thousands of more green miles.
HOW TIRECORE KEEPS THINGS ROLLING
At TIRECORE we see the environmental benefits of “Keeping things Rolling”
Since it’s inception TIRECORE has looked to be a leader in the Circular Economy and further maximizing the use of truck tires and material to their fullest. We take product that would have been in the landfill and repurpose it to be used again and again.
TIRECORE has since become a leader in the procurement of high-quality domestic and import truck tire casings for the retreading industry, including National domestic collection of casings from certified company procurement agents, affiliate brokers, local commercial tire companies and tire recyclers.
