About Recircle

Recircle is a UK-based company focused on sustainable solutions for the rubber materials sector. We have developed several technologies to provide sustainable solutions across the rubber waste spectrum. Our materials deliver over 90% Carbon emissions saving compared to virgin rubber and require less than 1% of the water needed to make new rubber. We are working with major industrial and household names to bring our solutions to them and developing our own products to sell to the wider market which could cut global rubber waste in half. And we're just about ready to be a zero-waste company in the process. So really what we are is a very green bio-industrial company and that ethos runs right through the organisation. We're collaborative, supportive, energetic, professional and commercially driven, and we care for our environment.
