TIA examines tire "lifecycle" with new booklet

Nov. 15, 2002

The Tire Industry Association's (TIA) new publication, "The Lifecycle of a Tire," discusses the tire recycling process.

The publication, which also comes with a poster, provides a "concise, thumbnail sketch of the tire from the moment it is placed on a vehicle through the options available for minimizing its impact on the environment," say TIA officials.

It also includes information on end-uses and market applications for scrap tires.

TIA assembled the booklet in tandem with the Tire and Rubber Recycling Advisory Council.

It can be ordered by calling (703) 736-8082.
