What We Do

From your yard to recycled rubber, in Scotland

UK Rubber collection vehicle loading commercial waste tyres for uplift in Scotland

Waste Tyre Collection

SEPA-licensed uplift for garages, MOT centres, tyre fitters, fleets, farms and industrial sites — scheduled or one-off, with duty-of-care paperwork every time.

Tyre Recycling Process

Every tyre is weighed, inspected, shredded and separated at our industrial-scale plant — recovering clean rubber, steel and fibre with nothing sent to landfill.

Rubber Chips & Crumbs

Recycled rubber chips and crumb from 40mm down to 1mm, in a range of colours — for landscaping, equestrian and play surfaces, and Tyre Derived Fuel.

Environment

Green, end-of-life tyre recycling

With over 40 years of experience in the waste management sector, UK Rubber exists to change what happens to Scotland’s share of the UK’s 50,000 tonnes of waste tyres a year. Recycling them locally cuts transport emissions, keeps the material in the circular economy, and gives Scottish businesses a disposal route they can stand behind — environmentally safe, SEPA-licensed, and fully traceable from your yard to the finished product.
