Tire Recycling Facts

  • Albertans discard over 3 million tires every year.
  • No tires have been burned as fuel in Alberta since 1995.
  • Over 80 per cent of the rubber material being recycled today is used right here in Alberta, twice as much as two years ago.

Asphalt Rubber equipment now Alberta based

   In the past, the equipment used to make asphalt rubber
had to be imported from Arizona. This often caused delays
and inflexibility for Alberta asphalt rubber paving. 2004 is the first year that the equipment used to create asphalt rubber is provided by an Edmonton-based company, Fath Industries.
   Having an Alberta based company provide the equipment
means that Alberta's asphalt rubber projects can be
carried out more efficiently and reliably.
