About us

Polylema company is a member of the international innovative Rubinntec group. The group of companies has developed and patented in the United States a unique tire recycling technology that allows rubber to be fully recovered from the tires and used in the production of virtually any rubber product. This technology solves the global problem of tire recycling. During the project it is planned to substantially improve the current initial version of the technology by conducting the necessary research and technological development.

According to the European Tire & Rubber Manufacturers' Association (ETRMA), European countries collect and recycle 94% of their waste - used car tires (calculated in 2018). In the European Union (EU) countries, as well as in Norway, Serbia, Switzerland and Turkey, 3.5 million tonnes of end-of-life car tires have been recycled.

Lithuanian legislation stipulates that manufacturers and importers of tires must collect and recycle 80% of their tires separately (the total amount of tires supplied to the Lithuanian market). In 2016, according to the data of the Ministry of Environment, registered tire importers brought 25.3 thousand tons of tires to the Lithuanian market and properly disposed of 76.3 percent of all tires sold on the market, excluding those sold illegally.

Currently, there are three main directions for dealing with the disposal of used tires: the re-use, incineration or storage of rubber waste in specially adapted landfills. Unfortunately, there is no way to recover your tires or dispose of the tires cleanly.

Production process

Tire assembly

Tire assembly

We are ready to clean the world of used tires.

Tire crushing

Tire crushing

The tires are shredded as in any recycling process.

An ongoing process

An ongoing process

The whole process uses a reactor for continuous decomposition of rubber crumbs - cracking.

Special component

Special component

In the recycling process, a compatibilizer from polymer waste helps to save and improves the devulcanization properties of rubber

Devulcanization

Devulcanization

The joints formed in the rubber vulcanization process are broken down at the molecular level.
