Selection
Selection work
Lintire collects worn passenger car tires from all over the Netherlands. It does so in a lean, structured and environmentally friendly process. Three key elements are present in our process. The systems, the logistics and processing capacity.
Once the collected tires are brought to Vianen, our circular process takes place and starts with the selection step.
The selection process starts by a thorough inspections of the tires. These inspections are conducted by our tire experts whom are trained to inspect, analyse and classify tires. With the use of tire inspection technology and their trained skillset, the inspectors audit whether the tires are suitable for certified reuse, for casing retreading (at Tyre Plan) or whether they are to be processed into rubber shreds.
1. The selected tires for reuse are immediately stored in the warehouse and made ready for transport to our international customers.
2. The selected tires for retreading are sent to Tyre Plan Europe, our sister-company under the Kargro Group.
3. The tires that were unfit for reuse or retreading are shredded and sent to Kargro Recycling.
