Capturing the Value in Tire Derived BMP's and Control Devices for Construction Stormwater Management Through Efficacy, Durability, and Economics
Rick Welle, Vice President
Erosion and sediment control devices, temporary and permanent can be constructed or manufactured utilizing recycled rubber primarily from waste tires. These control devices range from rubber logs, rubber molded products like blocks and mats, civil engineering applications such as, loose fill stormwater detention, and light weight aggregate fill applications. The benefits of using recycled rubber in these applications range from durability, usability, efficacy, and good economics.
