The REMADE Institute recently issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit both technology development projects and technology demonstration projects that will increase the reuse, remanufacturing / retreading, or recycling of end-of-life tyres (ELT) in New York State
The RFP has been revised and a list of responses to Frequently Asked Questions has been developed and is now available here.
The RFP is part of the ongoing New York State (NYS) Waste Tire Program. REMADE® was selected to develop and administer the NYS Waste Tire Program earlier this year on behalf of the NYS Department of Economic Development.
REMADE invites proposals for two grant programs: 1) Technology Development and 2) Technology Demonstration. Development projects involve research to finalize and validate technology performance. Demonstration projects use fully developed technology in pre-commercial trials to establish performance and market viability.
The RFP welcomes proposals from industry, non-profits, and academia. Each proposal must designate a single lead organisation and include a New York State ELT source partner, as well as an end-user partner to validate product quality and market acceptance.
For more information, and to read and respond to the revised RFP, go to: Waste Tire Request for Proposals – REMADE Institute.
Proposals are due Nov. 17.
