Technical purpose of product or process Flexofibers are metallic fibers obtained from end-of-life tire processing, featuring high tensile strength and flexibility. Their small diameter (250 microns – 0.25 mm) allows for a large filament count per unit weight, making them a highly competitive product from circular economy processes.
General comment on data set Flexofibers are metallic fibers obtained from of end-of-life tires waste. They are characterized by high tensile strength and flexibility. Their small diameter (250 microns – 0.25 mm) allows for a high number of filaments per unit weight, making them a highly competitive product derived from circular economy processes.

Technology description including background system Product components: The Flexofibers production process uses waste materials from end-of-life car and truck tire shredding plants. The raw material consists of steel fibers and wires of various lengths and diameters, with rubber contamination in irregular forms and crushed nylon.: The inventory includes the packaging of fibers in cardboard boxes, which, when unfolded, measure 700 x 1530 mm and hold 11.5 kg of fiber. Residues are also considered packed in plastic bags measuring 90 x 90 x 90 cm, with a capacity of 1000 kg of waste per bag.
