Tire Scrap can derive from a variety of vehicles ranging from cars to heavy vehicles such as trucks. The tire becomes a scrap when it is no longer usable due to wear or irreparable damage. It will be dumped in a stockpile waiting to be processed or recycled in a landfill, although it can bring potential risks to the environment if it's managed improperly.
The tire materials consist of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, polyester fibers, steel wire, carbon black, and other chemical compounds. The used tire can be separated, sorted, and recycled for other uses.
