Chemical composition of Recycling Granules
SStyrol
BButadiene
RRubber
In the market „black recycling granules“ are frequently referred as „SBR“ and are often associated with old tyres. However, upon closer examination it makes sense to differentiate, since Styrol-Buta-diene-Rubber (SBR) is a synthetic rubber with an unsaturated main chain (R-Rubber), that can be used for many applications (not merely tyres) as the basic rubber. For that reason, recycling granules are often made of a mixture of different basis ploymers. That can include SBR, EPDM and other rubbers.
EEthylene
PPropylene
D M Diene Rubber
Ethylene-Propylene-Diene-Rubber is a synthetic rubber. The saturated main chain (M-Rubber) provides EPDM with excellent weather, UV and ozone resistance.
Origin and quality of Recycling GranulesRecycled granules, that are used in the market, often come from different sources – these can be subsequently distributed as sorted or unsorted (blended). Neither the sorted EPDM products nor the technical products through Melos normally originate from recycled used material. Rather they accrue during new production, e.g. as high-grade blended material. Fibre granules are typically extracted from fully retreaded tyres.

Applications Application area
Sports venue construction
Recycling Granules are often supplied as an elastic layer in sports surfacing. Here, the materials meet the required elastic and (impact) damping properties.
Playgrounds, fall protection substructure
Recycling Granules are also often supplied as an elastic layer leisure surfacing. Here, the materials meet the required elastic and (impact) damping properties.
Artificial TurfThe material is used on some artificial turf systems as an elastic layer underneath the artificial turf. Another application area is the use as infill granules in artificial turf systems.
Stables, fall protection mats
Recycling Granules are used in stalls as paddock mats or as trailer coatings. They ensure good, safe footing for the animals.
Backstop in shooting ranges
With its visco-elastic and force-absorbing properties, the material is also used as a backstop in shooting areas.
Road constructionRecycling Granules are used in road construction projetcs – there the modified asphalt is mixed and installed as low-noise asphalt or as a filler in elastic layers.
Ship decksFloor coverings, that come into contact with water and other fluids, are often manufactured as recycled granules to provide skid resistance in these applications.
Application areas of Recycling GranulesRe-used granules provide a wide range of applications and have been used for highly varied application areas for years. Recycling Granules can be used as a cost effective option for fall protection tiles in combination with pigmented PU, as an infill for full pour sports surfacing systems, as prefabricated web material and for elastic layers in sports coverings and fall protection systems. Depending on the area of application, the granules are inserted loose, as an infill or in a bonded form.

Material properties of Recycling Granules
1 = The bulk density of a material is the weight per volume unit of the bulk material. Bulk density measured as per DIN EN ISO 60: Determination of the apparent density of moulding material that could flow through a standardised funnel.
2 = Due to the material origin and / or fluctating composition can be subject to significant fluctuations.³ = Approximate value; standardised measurement of the bulk density not possible on Fibre Class II and Fibre Class III.
