Rubber Crumb Granules

Rubber crumb is recycled tire rubber, ground into fine granules, used as a versatile, eco-friendly material in products like asphalt, playground surfaces, and molded items, offering benefits like cushioning, durability, and waste reduction by repurposing old tires. Its properties, like particle size (mesh) and surface characteristics, determine its application, from enhancing road resilience to creating safer play areas.
What it is:
Granulated rubber from end-of-life tires, with steel and fiber removed.
Comes in various mesh sizes (e.g., 10, 24, 40 mesh) for different uses.
Common Applications:
Roads & Paving: Mixed with bitumen (CRMB) to improve asphalt's high-temperature performance and resilience.
Safety Surfaces: Used in playgrounds, running tracks, and sports fields for cushioning and impact absorption.
Molded Products: Incorporated into new rubber goods, such as shoe soles, pipe linings, and plastic items.
Additives: Used in sealants, paints, and adhesives.
Benefits:
Environmental: Reduces tire waste in landfills.
Economic: Often cheaper than virgin rubber.
Performance: Adds flexibility, durability, and safety to products.
