The Tire Retread & Repair Information Bureau (TRIB) teamed with the American Commercial Tire Network (ACTN) to launch a video that highlights the environmental benefits of retreading.
The video can be seen on TRIB’s YouTube channel, the video section of TRIB’s website and at any trade show that TRIB attends.
“Tire retreading is one of the original green industries,” said David Stevens, TRIB managing director. “It conserves huge amounts of raw materials, including oil and steel, reduces carbon dioxide output, keeps millions of tires out of landfill every year, and eventually helps with the careful recycling of end-of-life tires to be used in other applications such as pavement and rubber mulch.”
Stevens said companies in the retread and repair industries are welcome to provide links to these videos to provide more information on retreading.
