Hammarsdale-based radial truck tyre recycler, Mathe Group, has processed its millionth radial truck tyre, bringing the total amount of rubber crumb produced for re-use in key industrial and construction applications to around 38 500 tons, according to CEO Dr Mehran Zarrebini. 

Based on an infill of 100 tons of rubber crumb per full size artificial football field, this equates to 385 full size football fields or 700 full size hockey fields ( based on 55 tons needed to create the elastic layer underneath artificial grass). 

The amount of rubber crumb produced would have provided the asphalt and seal needed to pave at least 8000 km of roads.
