Compactyre - A Bigger Impact!

Compactyre is a patented, hydraulically-driven compactor that punctures and compresses a tyre to less than one-quarter of its original size. Compacted tyres are easier to handle, store and transport, drastically reducing fuel costs and vehicle emissions in the collection of used tyres. Used with Envirotyre’s integrated bin and vehicle configuration, once the tyre has been compacted it will no longer require to be handled manually - significantly reducing the risk of personal injury.

Compacted tyres are retained in the folded position by mild steel nails and can be shred or granulated as with any non-compacted tyre.

The process, which breaks the tyre bead and punctures the casing, will also prevent defective tyres being sold on the second hand market to unknowing customers and hopefully help address the number of road traffic accidents across Europe as a result of unsafe tyres.

Compactyre is a revolutionary approach and will change the way in which end of life tyres are collected forever.

It is environmentally friendly, easy and safe to operate, reduces costs and saves lives!
