At Watts Urethane we are always looking for ways to reuse and recycle where possible. When it comes to old worn-out tyres, we have the ability to take them in from our customers, to remove the solid rubber and then sandblast the wheel centre to bring it back as good as new.

When it comes to old worn-out tyres, we have the ability to take them in from our customers, to remove the solid rubber and then sandblast the wheel centre to bring it back as good as new.
A bonding agent is then applied to the centre before we then cast a brand-new polyurethane tyre onto it. The finished wheels are as good as new and of course, it’s good for the environment as the metal is reused and even the rubber is then chipped and sent off to be made into children’s playground matting.
