At Genan, we turn waste into value. Our approach helps reduce environmental impact while supporting long-term sustainable growth.
About us
Long after they have left the road
Tires keep the world moving. As tires turn, goods are delivered, people are transported, and plans are executed. But what happens when they are worn out and stop turning? Worldwide, more than 7 million tires are scrapped every day. In many parts of the world, they become a waste problem, as they are left to degrade in landfill sites – or are incinerated, emitting large amounts of CO₂.
At Genan, we have turned this waste problem into a green opportunity. We recycle end-of-life tires (ELT) for reuse in a variety of ways.
Sustainability
Sustainability is at the core of what we do – but it is also at the core of how we do it. We constantly strive to minimize energy consumption in our recycling operations and to be as environmentally friendly as possible. And we believe in building sustainable relationships with our customers and business partners as well. We do that by committing to fundamental principles of transparency, the highest quality standards and an innovative drive.

Applications
Tires recycled by Genan are used for many different applications: Tire wire is remelted into new steel. Rubber powder and granulate is used as raw material by manufacturers that produce things like mats, floors, tiles, noise reduction solutions, handles, paint, coatings and binding agents. Rubber granulate is used as infill in football fields with artificial turf, and both granulate and pellets become the bouncy base layers of playgrounds and running tracks. And you can even go full circle and make new tires from old ones. The only limit is your imagination.
In our many development partnerships with our customers, we combine their needs for recycled rubber with our product knowledge. Together, we find a green solution to whichever challenge you may be facing – and we keep the wheels turning for a greener tomorrow.
