So does that mean the council dumps are going to give us money for them now instead of charging us.

Hey ! Is That Oil From a Synthetic or Natural Rubber Tyre..? 🤔

[@Nathanation88]

As far as I’m aware only aircraft tyres are ever fully natural latex rubber. However, considering synthetic rubber is primarily produced from petroleum byproducts, I would image the answer is obvious.

They need to do more to figure out that it's environment friendly or not

[@Nathanation88]

I’m sure they’re well aware of the byproducts/pollution the process produces. Then it purely depends on how else the tyres are disposed of, or recycled.

This process is not new

[@Nathanation88]

No one said it was new, but it is new to Australia.

100 years old tech sold as new invention, makes me laugh :) What is next wheels???

[@Nathanation88]

Such a pessimistic and narrow-minded perspective. Obviously you’re not a proponent for climate change, green energy, or recycling.

Well

[@aviralsinghal5227]

What a joke . Is it really an innovation 🤣🤣🤣

[@guillermoramirez6092]

of course, but im interested to know if now days it is economic and a chance to make a bussines.

[@Nathanation88]

What else are used tyres repurposed as? There are only so many things we can use ground rubber for.
