Anumber of tire-derivedproducts areused indiverse automotive applications. Specialized recycled rubber compounds areused in tiremanufacture and retreading, in automotive coating systems and as tire sealants. And, tire-derivedwheel stopsmadewith crumb rubber areused inparking lots. AutomotiveBenefitsMay Include: • New and retread tiresmadewith recycled tire rubber compounds offer: improved tirewear and longer life; enhancedwet/drygrip; better skid resistance • Tire-derived automotive coating systems provide: durability and flexibility; easeof application and maintenance; resistance tooil, solvents andweather; and arewaterproof anddurable • Tire-derived tire sealants provide increased safetydue to fewer tirepunctures, blowouts and flats • Tire-derivedwheel stops are: highlydurable and long-lasting; able to absorb vehicle impacts and degrade very slowly compared to alternativeproducts • Cost effective compared tonot using theproduct or using alternativeproducts

AutomotiveApplicationsMay Include: • Specialized rubber compounds used in tiremanufacture and retreading • Coating systems used to for bedliner andunderbodyprotection • Tire sealants used for passenger vehicles and in industrial grade vehicles • Wheel stops used inparking lots
