Recycling scrap tyres in Chile

羺Ƽ signed a contract with Bridgestone Mining Solutions Latin America S.A for the recycling of end-of-life tyres. The goal in 2023 for 羺Ƽ operations in Chile was to recycle 67 tonnes of end-of-life tyres. The first eight tyres arrived at the recycling plant in La Negra in July. By November 2023, 羺Ƽ Chile had exceeded their goal, recycling 68.5 tonnes of tyres. In recognition of the partnership, Bridgestone awarded 羺Ƽ a plaque for their ‘valuable collaboration and commitment, essential for the success in complying with the Extended Producer Responsibility Law in Chile’.

The recycling process is completed through Bridgestone's provider, which operates a pyrolysis plant capable of converting end-of-life tyres into various derivative products (such as scrap metal and pyrolitic fuel) through a thermal conversion process. In addition, 羺Ƽ is continuing to work with the provider to evaluate the use of the by-products to transition to a more circular economy. This includes the use of pyrolytic fuel in generators and small equipment, and the manufacture of rubber floors or walkways to use at 羺Ƽ projects in Chile.
