This policy brief presents the challenges and recommendations identified by the European BlackCycle project consortium to create a large-scale closedloop circular economy by transforming end-of-life tyres into high-quality secondary raw materials that are technically qualified as inputs for making
new tyres. This circular materials model involves a series of technologies, processes, and outputs: tyre deconstruction, granulation, pyrolysis, oil
distillation, sustainable carbon black production. We respectfully ask the EU policy maker to consider the recommendations herein and to support the deployment of more circular material flows from end-of-life tyre recycling.
