The most commonly recycled items are scrap from industrial processes, end-of-life products such as containers, vehicles, appliances, industrial machinery and construction materials.The use of scrap metal has...

• Tyres
  Materials There are an estimated 800 million cars and commercial vehicles in use worldwide, with almost 70 million units being added to that number every year. The explosive growth in the automobile sector in recent decades has been accompanied by a substantial increase in volume of end-of-life tyres. Significant developments by the recycling industry can now guarantee the adequate recovery of the millions of tyres that are disposed of daily. Mainly composed of rubber, textiles and steel, tyres...
