Our Tire Recycling utilizes both cryogenic and ambient systems to produce 250 million pounds per year of high quality crumb rubber from passenger or all black radial truck tires at four strategically located facilities through out the USA. Used for infill in Sports Turf, Synthetic Lawns, Playground Areas, & Horse Riding Rings.Ĭrumb rubber is a finely ground, powdered rubber produced from whole tires.

The 2K lb bags have loops on the top to slide forklift forks through, or we can ship them on pallets if requested. We separate the infill, screen it as best we can, store it inside to keep it dry. Turf field disposal can also be costly, as numerous dumpsters are needed to accommodate the 300,000 to 800,000 lbs of material which an be in a turf field. More specifically, the old field can not be sent to a landfill or incinerated. Many states and townships throughout the US, require the old field to be recycled when field replacement time comes. At our plant in Georgia, we have continuously refined the process of extracting the infill from the turf, and re-using the infill for a number of purposes. In a residential setting, 1 lb of sand per square foot, is often enough to accomplish this.įor over 10 years, our team has removed and recycled over 100 athletic fields with this rubber infill. The infill, which is sometimes mixed with sand, provides the weight needed to stabilize and hold the turf down. 5 lbs per square foot, which is not very heavy. New turf, without the infill, weighs roughly. Weight - Athletic turf is typically installed over a crushed rock base, on which the turf simply lays flat. Plastic turf fibers need something to keep them standing upright, or else they will simply lie flat on the ground.ģ. Real grass has the advantage of the sun holding the fibers up. Appearance - The infill keeps the fibers standing up straight. Often the infill around the edges of a field, or low use areas, are still very close to new condition.Ģ. While the used infill will be more broken down than brand new, virgin rubber infill, it still provides considerable impact attenuation. When filled with the rubber infill, a cushion of 1 to 1.5 inches of rubber is created, providing the absorption needed for safety concerns in contact sports such as football, soccer or lacrosse. Impact Attenuation - Turf fibers on an athletic field are typically 2 to 2.5 inches tall. It can also be used for turf repairs on existing fields, or to simply top-off low infilled areas.
