Rubber crumb is used in asbestos-free brake pads, reducing noise and improving wear. The use of heat-resistant rubber instead of asbestos-based materials is a relatively new technology . As well as lowering noise and improving wear, this product also minimises dust output to enhance vehicle appearance.

A variety of matting products are made from recycled rubber, for internal and external use, and for commercial and domestic use. These include non-slip door mats, and mats for workshops and kitchens. The mats are hard-wearing, don’t rot and can be washed easily.

Tyres are chipped and used as drainage aggregates in the construction of roads and drains. Chipped tyres are also used in embankments for road construction, reducing the weight and outwards pressure versus other materials, such as rock. This helps to lower overall construction costs.

Recycled rubber powder,granules are added to paint, providing grip in areas that may become slippery, including walkways of boats or strips that are applied to the edges of stairs

Mixed with polyurethane, recycled granulated rubber is rolled into noise-reducing insulation. This rubber matting insulation is especially used in units and apartments, both under flooring and in the walls for reducing and isolating noise. The use of a waterproof flexible binder also provides protection from the elements. Such products are usually also non-toxic and non-allergenic.
