Recycling a tire used to mean turning it into a backyard swing, but not any longer. Genan, a German company, has opened the world’s largest tire recycling facility in Houston, Texas. The company is a leader in the extraction and production of crumb rubber, rubber powder and steel from scrap tires. Recycled rubber is used in road construction and in playground tiles and artificial turf. The Houston facility will employ 60 workers and can recycle approximately 10 million passenger car tires per year. This is the first of five plants Genan will build in the US.
