In 2003, on the basis of the knowledge and experience gained from the Danish plant, Genan opened its second tyre recycling plant in Oranienburg, on the outskirts of Berlin, Germany. The input capacity was 65,000 tonnes of ELTs per annum.
Five years later, in 2008, a 70,000 tonne plant opened in Dorsten, Germany. When a third German plant with a similar capacity started operation in Kammlach, Bavaria, in 2010, the Genan recycling plant strategy for Germany was complete.
Aiming to globally further the recycling of end-of-life tyres in the environmentally and economically most beneficial way, Genan expanded operations with its first non-European plant in 2014, when the world’s largest tyre recycling plant was opened in Houston, Texas, USA, boasting an impressive 100,000 tonne annual input capacity.
