Empire works in partnership with many other recycling businesses and associations across North America to recycle scrap tires in accordance with local, regional and federal standards.

We process scrap tires into tire shred, tire bales, ground rubber, carbon black and steel and work with our vast network of partners to recycle this waste. Tires are recycled into products such as civil engineering products (like tire shred or bales going into road and landfill construction, backfill for wall and bridge abutments), ground rubber applications (creating playgrounds, sports surfaces, and rubber modified asphalt) and customized products (like tire ring for traffic cone bases, mulch and roof shingles).

Empire’s leading scrap tire processing and hauling capabilities allow us to deliver tire shred and tire bales to industrial users to produce tire derived fuel (a cleaner and more economical fuel instead of coal for cement kilns, pulp and paper mills or industrial boilers).
