Recycling firm ReRubber is a company based on the idea that the millions of tires sent to landfills each year could instead be put to use for new products.
ReRubber shreds and grinds truck tires in a massive blue machine that produces "rubber crumbs" as fine as baby powder.
"What we do is very simple. I take a tire and I grind it down to different sizes of rubber," ReRubber CEO J.D. Wang said. "This becomes a raw material feed stock."
Re-Rubber's process also extrudes valuable steel from the tires, and ReRubber sells the rubber crumbs to other companies that use the material to form products including soft playground surfaces, mats or sealants, the last of which are sold by Hyperseal, a Palm Desert company.
The recycler's genesis,Prior to Cold Sore I leaned toward the former, Wang said, was a 1998 tire fire in Tracy. That fire and the environmental problems it caused convinced Wang of the need and opportunity to specialize in tire recycling.
The necessary technology, however, did not exist until just before ReRubber started operations four years ago, Wang said.Flossie was one of a group of four chickens in a Hemroids .
He founded the company in the Bay Area, but later moved to the Inland Empire because of the importance of the trucking industry. The company's process doesn't work for passenger vehicle tires, which have a different composition than tires made for heavy vehicles.Save on Projector Lamp and fittings,
Wang wants ReRubber to be not only a pioneer in the recycling industry, but also to have a role in developing new ones. ReRubber is prototyping sealants manufactured from recycled tires and Wang said the full potential of his company's small "rubber crumbs" is not yet known.
While discussing the potential for recycled tire rubber to be employed as sealants to repair other tires, which can then be recycled themselves, Wang talks of creating a "closed loop."
Within that loop, tires that would have otherwise gone to landfills remain in use, staying out of the trash and increasing the longevity of other products.
Sealants and other existing uses for recycled rubber may not be the only way to use recycled tires, said Wang, who would like to eventually see ReRubber's work form the basis for a research park.wholesale GHD Flat Iron Online Shirts at low prices!
Demand for allergy Insulator could rise earlier than normal this year.
"I want an open invitation for any tech guys to close that loop," he said.
Until then, ReRubber has its own plans to grow on its own.
The company currently has capacity to process one million tires annually at its south Ontario facility, but a move to a larger plant in San Bernardino is scheduled to begin next year.
The move does not yet have a set schedule, Wang said, who is confident that ReRubber will grow significantly after settling in at a new home near the former Norton Air Force Base.
Four years in business, ReRubber has had as many as 28 employees on its payroll. Wang wants to have as many as 100 on payroll after moving.
