Specializing in Quality Crumb Production & Products Made From Recycled Rubber


Tire Recycling Atlantic Canada Corporation ("TRACC") is engaged in the collection, transportation, shredding, crumbing, and the re-manufacturing of new product from scrap tires.

Tire Recycling Atlantic Canada Corporation began full-scale operations in May, 1997. A plant currently is completed in Minto, New Brunswick and is the first of three Atlantic Canada facilities which will be constructed to address the tire management problem in Atlantic Canada.

TRACC has been awarded an exclusive contract by the New Brunswick Government to manage scrap tires in the province. TRACC, located in Minto, New Brunswick, will operate in a 40,000 square foot facility which is constructed on a 16.5 acre site. A sister company, TRACC (N.S.) Limited, has also been awarded the contract for the exclusive right to collect and recycle tires in Nova Scotia for five years. This plant is scheduled to be in operation by the end of August 1997 and is similar in size and scale as the New Brunswick plant. In addition, negotiations for a plant in Newfoundland continue.

Nova Scotia and New Brunswick each dispose of approximately 800,000 scrap tires annually. Allowing for normal slippage of 20% due to scrap tires being re-capped and other uses, TRACC will collect and process approximately 600,000 passenger tire equivalents (PTES) per year. In addition, TRACC will receive and process all of Prince Edward Island's (PEI's) scrap tires, estimated at approximately 100,000 PTEs annually, for a total of 700,000 tires. This will represent approximately 10,000,000 pounds of recycled rubber to be processed by the New Brunswick plant. The Nova Scotia plant will process a similar volume.

TRACC has adopted a closed loop tire management process. This process involves collection of whole tires from licensed tire retailers; shredding and crumbing the tires; processing the crumb into finished, moulded rubber products; and transporting the finished goods to market.

The company has technology which allows for the production of higher value-added products than those currently being produced by other tire recycles in North America. TRACC has produced and sold products on a small test basis utilising this technology and the products have been well received in the marketplace.

The main products produced will be:

  • Animal Mats - used primarily for livestock trailers and barns;
  • Sheet Stock - used in the manufacture of original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and auto-after market rubber parts; and
  • Manhole Collars and Risers - for manholes and catch basins sold to municipalities.
