Tyre Recycling Facility

InnoVent Renewables has announced its expansion into Texas with a new end-of-life tyre shredding and recycling facility near Houston, producing recycled steel and multiple grades of rubber crumb for a range of downstream markets.

Texas Expansion Adds Regional Tyre Recycling Capacity

InnoVent Renewables is establishing Texas InnoVent Renewables Inc. (TIRES Inc), a new operation that will run an end-of-life tyre (ELT) shredding and tyre recycling facility near Houston. The move brings dedicated processing capacity to a region with significant scrap tyre volumes, positioning the company to serve both industrial and civil-engineering demand for recovered tyre materials.

Recycled Steel and Rubber Crumb for Downstream Markets

The tyre recycling facility will process discarded tyres into two principal outputs: recycled steel and several grades of rubber crumb. The crumb is earmarked for established applications including asphalt roads, landscaping products, sports surfaces such as football fields, speed bumps, and cement mixes. Recovered steel, separated magnetically from shredded tyre wire, gives steel mills a clean ferrous fraction that offsets the energy of primary production. This mechanical approach means a tyre recycling facility can generate value from nearly every component of the scrap tyre.

Why Scrap Tyre Volumes Keep Rising

The feedstock picture underpins the opportunity. InnoVent Renewables notes that roughly 1.5 billion end-of-life tyres are discarded globally each year, including more than 300 million in the United States. That volume is not absorbed by traditional disposal routes, which is why dedicated shredding and tyre recycling infrastructure is expanding into new regions such as Texas. For developers, this growing supply of scrap tyres is both the feedstock and the business case for a new tyre recycling facility.

Beyond Shredding: The Wider Value Chain

A mechanical tyre recycling facility is one stage in a broader resource-recovery chain. Downstream of shredding, recovered rubber can feed tire pyrolysis, which breaks the material down into recovered carbon black, pyrolysis oil, and syngas. Operators that pair mechanical recycling with pyrolysis capture more value from the same feedstock, moving beyond crumb and steel into high-demand carbon and fuel products, and de-risking a single tyre recycling facility by diversifying its product mix.
