Cross-industry collaboration
This agreement secures feedstock for the Bolder Industries Terre Haute facility, currently in development, which will process over three million End-of-Life (EOL) tires per annum once fully commissioned in 2023. Given the projected increase in demand for BolderBlack® and BolderOil™, the volume of tires processed at Terre Haute could increase up to six million over the next two to four years. For Liberty Tire, CEO Thomas Womble says, “we view this relationship as part of our commitment to provide a core infrastructure for EOL tires for our customers.” Ultimately, the environmental savings captured from this partnership will be realized by the customers of both organizations, allowing them to achieve their sustainability mandates and goals.
“Cross-industry collaboration is critical to making the massive leaps needed to achieve our vision of transforming manufacturing sustainability worldwide”, said Tony Wibbeler, Founder & CEO of Bolder Industries. “We’re thrilled to formally partner with our friends at Liberty Tire who share in our vision and are right there with us, doing the hard work it takes to shift a massive supply chain toward long-term sustainability that will have positive ripple effects for decades to come.”
