Rubber powder, as a recycled material derived from waste tires, has been widely used across various industries due to its stable physical properties and good compatibility. It reduces the cost of raw materials, and promotes resource recycling. This article briefly introduces the common application areas of rubber powder and explores its value in the market.
Sources and Processing of Rubber Powder
Rubber powder is typically produced from waste tires through processes such as pretreatment, cutting, shredding, magnetic separation, fiber separation, and fine grinding. A complete tire recycling line requires multiple specialized machines working together, including tire cutters, tire recycling shredders, steel wire separators, and rubber crushers. Our company provides a full set of equipment for processing waste tires into finished rubber granules, meeting various capacity and particle size requirements.
Main Application Areas
Road Construction
Crumb rubber is commonly used in rubberized asphalt to improve road durability and crack resistance. Roads paved with rubber-modified asphalt have longer service life, better noise reduction properties, and require less maintenance.
Sports Tracks and Surfaces
Rubber granules are widely used in the production of synthetic running tracks and sports surfaces in schools and athletic facilities. These surfaces provide good elasticity and slip resistance, making them suitable for various physical activities.
Recycled Rubber Products
Rubber powder is a key material in producing recycled rubber products such as remanufactured tires, rubber mats, shock-absorbing pads, hoses, and belts. It helps reduce manufacturing costs and improves the efficiency of resource utilization.
Construction and Industrial Use
In construction, rubber powder is used in waterproof membranes, sealants, and sound insulation materials, improving their flexibility and durability. In industrial applications, it can be used to make vibration-reducing components and rubber gaskets.
Environmental and Landscaping Uses
Rubber crumb is also used as infill material for artificial turf, children’s playground surfacing, and landscaping applications. These uses enhance safety and comfort while meeting environmental protection standards.
Why Choose Rubber Granules Making Machine?
Tire recycling is not only an environmentally responsible practice but also a promising investment opportunity. By using specialized tire recycling equipment, users can steadily process waste tires into rubber powder, which can then be sold to various rubber product manufacturers, road construction companies, or building material enterprises.
Our company offers recycling line configurations with different output capacities, capable of handling passenger car tires, truck tires, and even off-the-road (OTR) tires. Since different customers have varying requirements for output volume and powder fineness, we provide tailored equipment recommendations based on the raw materials and end-use applications. This approach helps improve production efficiency and facilitates easier downstream sales and utilization.
