Used tire generation is rising across Europe, reaching 4.4 million tonnes in 2024, and the pressure on recycling systems, sustainability targets, and regulatory compliance has never been higher. ELT management is now a strategic issue: manufacturers, recyclers, and policymakers all need a clear and consistent view of where waste is coming from, how fast it’s growing, and which sectors are driving change.
This report brings that clarity.
Drawing on Astutus Research’s long-standing expertise in tire recycling and waste flows, this dataset provides a comprehensive, model-ready view of used tire generation across Europe. It tracks annual waste volumes by country, sector, and channel, highlights year-on-year changes, and quantifies long-term growth trends to 2030.
With policymakers debating export restrictions, changing rules on tire granulate use, and the industry pushing toward 100% sustainable materials, the ability to anticipate waste volumes is essential. This report gives your team the numbers, the segmentation, and the foresight needed to plan recycling capacity, assess market opportunities, and stay ahead of regulatory change.
This dataset provides a granular breakdown of used tire and ELT generation across Europe, with historic data, current volumes, and forecasts through 2030. Delivered through an interactive Power BI report and an accompanying data file for internal modelling.
