Pyrolyx AG

The Pyrolyx Group is the world leader in the extraction of rCB (recovered carbon black) from end-of-life tires. Conditioned rCB is used to manufacture new tires as well as in the plastic and technical rubber industries.

The Pyrolyx Group's eco-friendly technology provides an answer to the problem of how to dispose of and recycle the world's growing volume of disused tires. Compared to the conventional production of carbon black, the Pyrolyx method enables CO2 emissions to be reduced by up to 2.5 tonnes per tonne of rCB. Pyrolyx AG's manufacturing operations for the tire industry take place within a closed recycling loop. Byproducts arising during production are reused either as fuel in the manufacturing process or to make other products, ensuring that nothing goes to waste.

Since the Pyrolyx Group is the only company in the world to offer both continuous and batch production, it can serve all addressable carbon black markets. Production in Stegelitz is ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004 certified.

Pyrolyx AG owns all the intellectual property rights to Pyrolyx environmental technology and has various patents concerning the industrial production of carbon black. Pyrolyx AG is listed on the Düsseldorf Stock Exchange (WKN A0MFXR).
