Inside the Tire Recycling Factory - From Old Tires to Rubberized Asphalt

Inside the Tire Recycling Factory - From Old Tires to Rubberized Asphalt
Step inside a massive tire recycling factory where end-of-life vehicle tires (ELT) are transformed into clean crumb rubber (CRM), then engineered into rubberized asphalt using both wet-process rubberized binder and dry-process hot-mix routes. Watch the full industrial chain—intake and inspection, depollution cleaning, bead removal and pre-cutting, high-torque shredding and granulation, precision steel + fiber separation, CRM storage and packaging, heated asphalt blending, loadout logistics, and real-world paving and compaction.
Millions of end-of-life tires don’t have to end up in landfills—inside a massive heavy-industry recycling factory, they’re transformed into crumb rubber (CRM) and engineered into rubberized asphalt for real roads. In this ultra-real documentary-style process tour, we follow the tire’s journey from intake and inspection through crushing, shredding, precision screening, and high-efficiency separation—removing steel and fiber—before the clean rubber granules are used to create rubber-modified asphalt.

What you’ll see in this video:
• Tire intake & inspection: bulk unloading, weighing, contaminant removal
• Depollution & cleaning: grit removal, dust control, safety interlocks
• Bead removal & pre-cutting: steel bead recovery and standardized feedstock
• Shredding & granulation: primary reduction → secondary sizing → controlled recirculation
• Steel + fiber separation: overband magnets, drum magnets, air classification
• Crumb rubber (CRM) storage & packaging: silos, super sacks, dispatch logistics
• Rubberized asphalt manufacturing: wet-process rubberized binder + dry-process hot-mix integration
• Loadout & paving: hot mix delivery, paver placement, steel + pneumatic rolling, QC checks

Rubberized asphalt is one of the biggest end markets for crumb rubber—turning scrap tires into long-lasting infrastructure. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
