Prepare the input
Tyre granulate is prepared for a uniform, consistent feed.
THE FACTORY / BILLINGSFORS, SWEDEN
Local roots.
Industrial ambition.
A modular factory under development in Billingsfors, Bengtsfors Municipality. Designed to convert end-of-life tyres into useful materials through continuous industrial production.
PLANNED DESIGN CAPACITY
~20,000tonnes of tyre input / year
~60tonnes of daily throughput
24/7designed for continuous operation
2 linesdesigned-in redundancy
Design figures from RETYRA’s factory presentation. These describe the planned facility, rather than current production.
01 / THE MATERIAL JOURNEY
Engineered to keep
resources in use.
Convert without oxygen
Continuous thermochemical conversion breaks down the material in an oxygen-free environment.
Separate and recover
Oil, carbon and gas are separated into usable output streams.
Return the energy
Recovered syngas supplies process energy within the plant.
02 / INDUSTRIAL OUTPUTS
Recovered materials.
Established applications.
The design targets material recovery of at least 80% at full operation, with recovered gas reused for energy.
01 / OUTPUT
rCB
Recovered carbon black
A recovered material for rubber and plastics.

02 / OUTPUT
TPO
Tyre pyrolysis oil
A circular feedstock for refining and chemical industries.

03 / OUTPUT
GAS
Syngas
Recovered gas reused inside the plant to supply process energy.
INTERNAL ENERGY LOOP
03 / DESIGNED FOR RELIABILITY
Built to operate.
Designed to replicate.
Industrial discipline
- Continuous production with twin-line redundancy
- Standardised process units and critical systems
- Technology sourced from established suppliers
- Capital and operating costs evaluated before investment
A modular architecture
- Modular reactor systems and infrastructure
- Capacity that can be scaled to suit each site
- Integration with local industry and logistics
- A repeatable design for future locations
04 / PROJECTED RESOURCE IMPACT
More recovery.
Less waste.
The factory model aims to reduce tyre incineration, substitute fossil-based raw materials and reuse gas for process energy.
~55,000

RETYRA project estimate from the supplied factory presentation. The presentation does not include the calculation methodology or independent verification; realised impact will depend on operating conditions and the comparison baseline.
05 / FROM BUILD TO OPERATION
A phased path
to production.
Site preparation
Permits, procurement and preparation.
Build and install
Construction and installation of process equipment.
Commission
Testing, commissioning and production ramp-up.
Operate
Move towards full industrial production.
