The objective of this work has been to characterize the acoustic behavior in situ of bituminous mixtures that contain rubber dust coming from tires out of use incorporated by different methods. The mixtures have been extended in various experimental test sections of 200 m length on the B-140 road in Barcelona. The experimental sections have been paved with a tread layer about 3 cm thick with a discontinuous M-10 type microagglomerate mixture (according to the Spanish name). The acoustic measurements, sound of tire / pavement interaction in proximity, were carried out with a semi-anechoic chamber trailer called TiresonicMk4-LA2IC. Sound levels and spectra have been assigned to each test section and have been compared with a reference surface that does not contain rubber dust. These results have been correlated with the texture values. This work presents the effect on the reduction in the noise emission of the addition of rubber powder to the discontinuous bituminous mixture M-10

Artificial grass is teaming up with the natural stuff and taking root at the World Cup, blade by blade. A generation after fully artificial surfaces outraged football fans and players around the world, this year’s World Cup in South Africa will debut a surface with millions of synthetic grass fibers woven in between and beneath the natural grass. The first World Cup test of…

Ecolgren K and INFILL BLACK CLASSIC is the new product that have certificate for FIFA syntetic turf application two stars.

This rubber granules respect the toxicology test. The first is coated on colour green and the second is colorfull black material. The difference is only in the price but the characteristic is optimum togheter.

Recycling Plants

mulino-granulatore1Waste Rubber Recycling Process

Production plants

The complex production plants are composed of advanced technologies for the continuous production of recycled granules or powders.
The pool of companies makes at the moment available 4 plants from which you can obtain the following production quantities:
25.000 tons of Crumb Rubber Modifier (CRM)
10.000 tons of Grinding Dust

The plants were supplied from TIRES S.p.A. and allow to obtain the highest qualitative standard world-wide recognized.

In the “technical specification” you will have at your disposition the whole production range.

Warehouse

polverizzatoreThe pool of the companies get a wide and covered warehouse, where they are more than 24 typologies of different granulometric productions, divided for colour, for every needs of the re-use market.

The packaging of the material can be realized in several solutions:
Packaging in Big Bag of 2 mc
Packaging in Big Bag of 1.5 mc
Packaging in polyethylene sacks of 25 kg on pallets of 1.300 kg
Packaging in paper sacks of 25 kg pallets of 1.300 kg*
*for shipments by sea with special sack and pallet size fumigated and certified.

To quickly fulfil to the required orders, the unsold stocks represent the entity of 1.600 tons of product, which is monthly handled and it is replaced with new material of monthly production.
