Advanced Pyrolysis Technology – Pioneering Recycling of Complex Rubber Compounds

At Continental Industries, we are transforming the future of rubber recycling – turning complex waste into high-value resources. With the acquisition of a specialized patent family and the launch of a cutting-edge pilot facility, we are transforming end-of-life rubber into valuable raw materials using advanced pyrolysis technology.

Purified Pyrolysis Oil: A Fossil-Free Alternative

Our proprietary thermal purification process enables the recovery of high-quality pyrolysis oil from complex rubber waste. This oil rivals fossil crude in quality and can be reintegrated into the chemical production cycle. Key outputs include:

This innovation supports the production of new rubber and plastic products without relying on fossil resources.

Enabling a Circular Economy for Rubber Products

Our technology makes it possible to recycle rubber products that were previously non-recyclable, such as:

By closing the loop, we reduce environmental impact and promote a circular materials economy.

Driving Industrial Sustainability Through Innovation

Continental Industries continues to lead in sustainable industrial solutions, with hundreds of patents and applications focused on material recovery and eco-friendly production. Our pyrolysis initiative is part of a broader strategy to reduce dependency on fossil resources and enhance the recyclability of complex materials.
