Tyre Baling

Tyre baling is a practical and environmentally responsible method for managing used or scrap tyres, offering numerous benefits, including waste reduction, efficient transportation, improved recycling, and enhanced safety. It plays a crucial role in reducing the environmental impact of tyre waste and promoting sustainable tyre management practices.

Our Tyre Baling Process

Tyre bales are produced from car and truck tyres, but these can't be mixed within a bale.
A car tyre bale contains between 100 and 115 tyres, depending on the size of the tyres. Specialist tyre baling machines produce the bales using powerful hydraulic rams to compress the tyres once they have been loaded in a specific sequence.

The baler's chamber is 1.55 metres wide and 0.75 metres front to back. The chamber is 2.0 metres high and after compression the waste tyre stack will be down to 1.2 metres high. Note the herringbone pattern of the waste tyres, this makes the bale stable.

Five tie wires secure the bale. In this picture you can see them laid at the bottom of the bale, before the door closes. When the baling process is complete the bale is tipped out of the baler and has a footprint of 1.5m by 1.2m and a height of 0.75m.

Tyre bales weigh around 800 kilograms so must be handled using mechanical handling equipment. Up to 26 bales can be fitted within a standard shipping container, the equivalent of 2600 car tyres, four or five times the number of loose tyres that could be contained.

A tyre bale is easily stacked, stored, and manoeuvred wherever you need it.
