Environment: Recycling options for Rubber

Recycling of rubber waste can be a valuable business. Not only does it have a positive effect on the environment, it can also be very profitable. Since high prices of virgin materials make recycling attractive.

The NGO Practical Action produced several factsheets on recycling options in developing countries. The factsheets give an overview of technical and economical aspects involved in these activities; it is intended primarily for entrepreneurs thinking of setting up their own recycling business and for organisations dealing with communities in urban low-income areas and who seek opportunities either to create or to increase employment.
