TPV Waste to Resource: Circular Economy Made Easy

The TPV Waste Challenge & Opportunity

More than 40,000 tons of TPV production waste is generated worldwide each year (equivalent to the weight of 8,000 cars). If these wastes are landfilled, they will not only waste resources but also increase carbon emissions.

The good news is: TPV materials can be 100% recycled and reused with less than 15% performance loss.

Why must we act now?

  • EU's new regulations require: By 2025, 30% of plastic parts must contain recycled materials.
  • Cost advantage: Using recycled TPV can reduce material costs by 20-35%.
  • Brand value: 83% of consumers trust brands with recycling plans more

3-Step Pathway to Value

In-Process Scrap Recovery

Implementation points:
1. Install an online crusher
2. Control the addition ratio
3. Use a temperature stabilizer

Post-Industrial Upcycling

Scrap Type Innovative Applications Key Specifications
Seal Trimmings Construction Weatherstrips Weatherability >5 years
Dashboard Scrap Industrial Gaskets Compression set <25%
Colored Scrap Garden Tool Handles Shore A 75 hardness

Closed-Loop Collaboration

  1. Supplier collaboration
  2. Logistics optimization
  3. Quality assurance

Summary: Towards a zero-waste TPV circular economy

The recycling of TPV materials has been upgraded from an environmentally friendly option to an industry must-have. By implementing the three major strategies of online waste recycling, cross-industry upgrade utilization, and closed-loop supply chain construction, companies can achieve economic benefits, environmental value, and brand enhancement.


Now is the key window period for the layout of the TPV circular economy. We recommend immediately: pay attention to Dawn TPV and get Dawnprene samples.
