ENVIRONMENT
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, there are at least 275 million scrap tires in U.S. stockpiles. And approximately 290 million scrap tires are created every year.
An alarming problem. But one that fleets and dealers worldwide are actively addressing with Bandag retreads.
The Bandag manufacturing process is optimized to minimize or eliminate negative impacts on employees, communities and the environment — while constantly seeking ways to reduce energy consumption.
Retreads eliminate or reduce the use of hazardous materials. Plus, through an efficient production process, waste is minimized and then recycled or incinerated where possible.
Plus, Bandag dealers and fleet customers are instructed about the efficient use of retread tires and how to ensure their proper disposal at the end of their final life cycle.
In short, the Bandag brand stands for a full circle commitment to environmental protection and responsibility.
