Did you know that India discards 100 million used tyres every year!
Used car tyres are among the largest and most problematic sources of waste in the world. A staggering number of tyres are manufactured each year which contain a number of components that are ecologically damaging, such as the embedded metal found in steel belt radial tires. Tyres are also not biodegradable. In India, we lack the necessary mechanisms to recycle or dispose of tyres retired from their primary use. Most often, endoflife tyres land up in the unorganised sector where they are burnt in pyrolysis units or in open dumps without any safety checks. Burning of rubber releases toxic fumes that are extremely damaging to human and animal health. Rubber is often mistaken for food by stray animals, and ingested, harming their digestive systems.
But, what's interesting is that the same properties that make waste rubber problematic: its cheap availability, bulk and durability, also makes it an excellent candidtae for recycling and reuse in innovative ways to make sustainable lifestyle products, home decor items and even as raw material in the building industry. The possibilities are endless!
Rubber is a great alternative to leather!
Rubber is strong, naturally waterproof, crueltyfree and with none of the pollution caused by the leather industry. It's a great looking material, too!
