EPR for Tyre Manufacturers: What the Rules Say

Tyre manufacturers and importers carry specific EPR obligations reflecting the environmental challenge of end-of-life tyre disposal.

5 min read Awareness

Tyre manufacturers and importers carry specific EPR obligations reflecting the environmental challenge of end-of-life tyre disposal.

Producers and importers of tyres are generally required to register and ensure a defined portion of tyres placed in the market are collected and processed responsibly at end of life.

Waste tyre processing (through methods like pyrolysis or material recovery) requires working with appropriately registered processing partners to fulfill compliance obligations.

Given tyres' bulk and the specific processing infrastructure required, planning EPR compliance logistics — not just registration — matters meaningfully for tyre manufacturers and importers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to collected waste tyres under this framework?

They're generally processed through registered recycling/processing methods rather than simply landfilled, as part of the EPR framework's environmental objectives.

Does this apply to tyre retailers, or only manufacturers/importers?

Obligations are generally tied to producers and importers placing tyres in the market — confirming your specific role and obligations is important.
