EcoTech Recycling is using a patented thermodynamic process to turn end-of-life tires into active rubber, a nontoxic synthetic material for new tires, auto parts, and insulation.
EcoTech produces active rubber using a combination of mechanical shredding and granulation machines to produce clean rubber granules. The company's patented technology freezes the rubber granules without liquid nitrogen, enabling the rubber to be milled into ultra-fine powders and efficiently separated from other impurities. These ultra-fine powders are introduced into a Banbury mixer where the mixing process within the Banbury, combined with EcoTech's proprietary chemical formulation, enables the activation process that creates active rubber.
EcoTech developed Ecoinsul, an inner wall and flooring insulation material that is cost competitive and easy to install. Made from EcoTech's active rubber base material, Ecoinsul provides nontoxic, low-carbon, end-to-end thermal insulation for consumers.
