In these days of inconvenient truths, recycling is among the most reassuring words doing the rounds. It encompasses, among many other processes - reusing waste rubber in all forms, like grinding vulcanized rubber waste either by cryogenic or ambient grinding process. A mild divergence from the core word, brings us to reclaiming - a process of de-polymerization, wherein vulcanized waste rubber is ground, treated with application of heat, chemicals and is then intensely worked mechanically. A total re-use of waste rubber.Recycling is among the most reassuring words doing the rounds. Recycling is a key component of modern waste reduction and is the third component of the "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" waste hierarchy.

Here's how reclaim rubber is helping the world :

• 1. Produced from used waste rubber, its considered to be the third source of rubber after natural and synthetic rubber
• 2. Both in developing and developed countries, recycling is an ecological necessity; but reclaiming plays a crucial role in the economy as well
• 3. It complements virgin rubber and opens many opportunities in rubber industries
• 4. It offers many advantages such as price stability and improved productivity
• 5. Addition of reclaim rubber helps save energy and compound cost
• 6. It has established its worth and versatility by use in butyl tubes, cycle tyres & tubes, battery containers, tread rubber, belts & hoses, molded & extruded products
