The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has issued access conditions for the tire retreading industry to regulate the market

The website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced on the 20th the “conditions for accessing the tire retreading industry” and the “conditions for accessing the comprehensive utilization of waste tires” to regulate the development order of the industry.

The "Tire Renovation Industry Access Requirements" pointed out that new, rebuilt and expanded tire retreading and processing projects must comply with national industrial policies, and new construction companies must have relatively stable old tire supply channels. Tire retreading and processing enterprises have been built, and the annual production capacity of tire retreading shall not be less than 20,000 standard discount bars. The newly-built, rebuilt or expanded tire retreading and processing enterprises shall have an annual comprehensive production capacity of no less than 30,000 standard discount bars.

The waste tires that cannot be remanufactured during the tire renewal process should be recycled and reused by a qualified waste rubber comprehensive utilization enterprise. The rubber edging and rubber powders that have been ground and polished must be 100% recycled. The energy consumption of tire retreading is limited to: the total energy consumption of pre-vulcanized retreaded tires is less than 15 kWh/standard bar; the overall energy consumption of compacted retreaded tires is less than 18 kWh/standard bar.

The “Entirement Conditions for the Comprehensive Utilization of Waste Tires” pointed out that the newly-built, rebuilt and expanded waste tire processing and utilization projects must comply with the national industrial policy and the overall land use planning, urban and rural planning, environmental protection, and pollution prevention planning in the region, and adopt energy-saving and environmental protection technologies and production. equipment. Has been built waste tire processing and utilization of enterprises, the annual comprehensive treatment capacity of waste tires shall not be less than 10,000 tons. Newly-built, rebuilt or expanded waste tire processing and utilization enterprises, with an annual comprehensive treatment capacity of not less than 20,000 tons.

In the waste tire processing and utilization process, 100% of the waste rubber in the waste tires is to be used; waste fibers and waste steel wires in the waste tires are recycled. In terms of energy consumption, the comprehensive energy consumption of waste tire processing recycled rubber is less than 850 kWh/ton; the comprehensive energy consumption of scrap tire processing rubber powder is less than 350 kWh/ton; and the comprehensive energy consumption of waste tire pyrolysis processing is less than 300 kWh. /Ton.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will, with the Ministry of Environmental Protection, regularly publish a list of companies that meet the two entry conditions. Those that do not meet the conditions for entry shall not engage in tire retreading and tire waste processing and utilization.
