Allianz Insurance Singapore has unveiled a pioneering initiative, Recycle My Tyres, offering free tyre recycling to all drivers in Singapore. This programme, launched in collaboration with Global Enviro Technology, allows drivers to drop off used tyres at participating workshops, where they will be transformed into valuable materials such as recycled carbon black, syngas, and steel using advanced RF plasma pyrolysis technology.
The initiative aims to address the growing pressure on landfills by providing a sustainable disposal option for tyres, aligning with Singapore’s broader environmental goals. Ong Bi Ying, Chief Operating Officer of Allianz Insurance Singapore, stated, “As an insurer, we see first-hand the impact mobility has on our environment. That’s why we’re taking this step, not just for our customers, but also for the wider community of drivers who care about making more sustainable choices.”
Global Enviro Technology, a leader in sustainable waste management, will partner with Allianz to track the number of tyres collected and estimate the carbon savings achieved through recycling. This data will help raise awareness about the environmental benefits of the programme.
The Recycle My Tyres initiative is open to the general public, allowing any driver to participate by visiting participating Allianz-authorised workshops. This effort marks the first insurer-led tyre recycling initiative in Singapore, setting a precedent for sustainable automotive waste management.
