KIAS Recycling GmbH, Austria

Recyclingbaustoffe

KIAS Recycling operates the only used tire recycling plant in all of Austria.

At its production site in Ohlsdorf, KIAS Recycling operates one of the most modern granulating plants in Europe. The plant seperates the valuable components contained in used tires – rubber (approx. 65%), steel (approx. 15%) and textile cord (about 20%). The end products are high quality materials which are reused for making new products such as fall protection mats, impact sound insulation for sports facilities and children’s playgrounds among others. In addition, future developments will focus on high-quality alternative fuels that allow for the replacement of black coal.
