Retreading = Recycling
What are the advantages?
Environment
- Four times as much crude oil is needed to produce a new tire than to retread a tire
- less residual residue from waste tire processing
- well-maintained tires consume less fuel and therefore less CO2 emissions
Cost reduction
- Well-maintained tires provide significant fuel savings
- because the existing tires are recycled, as it were, you do not pay a scrap surcharge
- well-maintained tires last longer and therefore have a longer life
