In 2003, based on the knowledge and experience gained from the Danish plant, Genan opened a tire recycling plant at Oranienburg, on the outskirts of Berlin, Germany. Input capacity was 65,000 MT of scrap tires a year.
Five years later, in 2008, a 70,000 MT plant opened in Dorsten, Germany. When a third German plant with a similar capacity started operations in Kammlach, Bavaria, in 2010, the Genan recycling plant strategy for Germany was complete.
In 2014, with an ambition to advance material recycling of scrap tires in the most beneficial way, environmentally as well as economically, Genan expanded operations with its first non-European plant. Genan opened the world’s largest tire recycling plant in Houston, Texas, USA, boasting an impressive 100,000 MT input capacity a year.
