About Tyromer

Tyromer is a Waterloo-based start-up, and with a start-up loan from Michelin Development, Tyromer will turn scrap tire rubber crumbs into tyromer, a versatile tire-derived polymer that can be used in tire and rubber goods manufacturing. It is an environmentally friendly, safe product which can be used as a rubber substitute, or blended with natural and synthetic rubbers as well as plastic like polypropylene. Used as a replacement for synthetic rubber, tyromer offers a reduction in the use of non-renewable petroleum-based resources. Most significantly, tyromer can be used for re-treading tires to provide manufacturers with an ideal product life cycle management solution.
