PyL Neumáticos and Pirelli became a part of the first project in Argentina that aims to incorporate recycled rubber powder into asphalt mixtures — applied over a 10-kilometre stretch, with a 10-metre-thick layer and containing 10% of end-of-life tyres (ELTs)
As a part of the initiative, Fabián López, Minister of Infrastructure and Public Services and Victoria Flores, Minister of Environment and Circular Economy, visited the experimental section together with Julio Bañuelos, President of Caminos de las Sierras.
PyL Neumáticos supplied the recycled rubber used in the construction of the service road along the Córdoba–Carlos Paz motorway in Argentina within a collaborative project involving the public, private, and academic sectors. The initiative aims to promote the circular economy and the recovery of end-of-life tyres, while assessing the technical, environmental, and economic feasibility of this type of asphalt.
Project partners include Caminos de las Sierras S.A., HINS Energía, CONTRINI, and UTN – La Plata Regional Faculty
