Sustainable rCB from end-of-life tyres — TÜV SÜD certified, IRMRA PAH non-detectable, ~70% lower CO₂. Powder & pellets.
Recovered carbon black (rCB) is produced through the controlled pyrolysis of end-of-life tyres (ELTs), recovering high-value carbon for reuse in rubber, plastics and masterbatch. Budcon International supplies TÜV SÜD REACH/RoHS-certified, IRMRA PAH non-detectable rCB in both powder and pellet form, with a full Certificate of Analysis on every shipment.
