  • Svensk-norskt joint venture tar återvinningen till nästa nivå

    Svensk Däckåtervinning och Norsk Dekkretur inleder nu ett strukturellt samarbete kring hanteringen av uttjänta däck i de båda länderna. Den operativa verksamheten kommer att koordineras via det gemensamt ägda bolaget Bon Orbit. Målet är att öka tillgången på högkvalitativa råvaror och att bana väg för nya cirkulära användningsområden.

Swedish Tyre Recycling are delighted to announce that we have received two awards at the 2025 Swedish Design Awards: one for the anniversary book Repurposed Performance and another for the film When glass meets steel. A huge thank you to everyone who voted. Thanks to your support, the film was awarded the prestigious People’s Choice Award. Thanks also to glassblower Lisa Hartwig Ericson, who appears in the film, showing how recycled tyres can be given new life in entirely innovative ways, and to the production agency True North/True Production for a creative and inspiring collaboration. Finally, a special thanks to the design jury for honouring us with a silver medal in the Book category. The recognition celebrates not only the design of the book but also the recycled tyre material used. The fact that the book was produced entirely in-house makes this award particularly special.

Idag öppnar röstningen för Svensk Däckåtervinnings andra tävlingsbidrag i Svenska Designpriset. Ståltråd från återvunna däck möter glas i den nominerade filmen om materialens oväntade samspel. ”Som konstnär och designer är det avgörande för mig att låta materialet vara en medskapare i processen – inte bara för att jag tycker om att bli överraskad utan också för att jag tror att detta förhållningssätt är avgörande när vi pratar om hållbar utveckling”, säger glasblåsaren Lisa Hartwig Ericson. Filmen är producerad tillsammans med True North/True Production, som en del av Svensk Däckåtervinnings initiativ Art of Recycling. Lägg gärna din röst på bidraget på designpriset.se/rostning

Svensk Däckåtervinning är dubbelt nominerade i Svenska Designpriset!   Det första bidraget är jubileumsboken Repurposed Performance, i vilken Svensk Däckåtervinning lyfter återvunnet däckgummi som ett material fullt av möjligheter, potential och oväntade egenskaper. Bidrag nummer två är en film skapad inom Svensk Däckåtervinnings initiativ Art of Recycling, tillsammans med True North/True Production. Filmen porträtterar glasblåsaren Lisa Hartwig Ericsons utforskande av vad som händer när stål från återvunna däck används i glaskonsten.   Gå gärna in och lägg din röst på det bidrag du tycker förtjänar att vinna. Det går att rösta på boken redan nu och på filmen från och med den 15 september. Rösta på designpriset.se/rostning @trueproduction.se @lisahartwigericson @aorec_

Alexandra Morenos sculpture ”A Knot in Motion” is a human-tyre hybrid, that allows us to see ourselves reflected in what we often ignore — our interconnectedness with all matter, living or otherwise, in a world where boundaries continually shift and blend. Recognising our interdependence and our connections to others opens up new ways of seeing the world. It reveals that humankind and nature are not in competition, nor are they separate. By seeing the world as an interconnected whole — and thus moving beyond anthropocentric thinking — we can discover fresh perspectives on what it means to be human and reconsider how we relate to others around us, both human and non-human. The sculpture is part of Art of Recycling, an art koncept initiated by Swedish Tyre Recycling. Made by artist Alexandra Moreno @alexandrajanssonmoreno Discover more at @aorec_

”A Knot in Motion” is a sculpture where two contrasting elements — human and tyre — fluidly form a unified object, assembled entirely from discarded car tyres. Blurring distinctions between the organic and the synthetic, the human and the non-human. By merging human forms with rubber, the body parts are abstracted, appearing to become part of the material itself or vice versa, dissolving the line between subject and object. The sculpture captures something non-living yet feels alive, highlighting how human life is intricately interwoven with the materials we create and discard. The sculpture is part of Art of Recycling, an art concept initiated by Swedish Tyre Recycling. Made by artist Alexandra Moreno @alexandra_moreno Discover more at @aorec_

The 2024 Annual Report from Swedish Tyre Recycling takes on a more personal tone. Under the theme when tyres meet poetry, the report explores new perspectives on tyre recycling – and the sense of identity and emotion that can be connected to this line of work. What mindset shapes this mission – and with what kind of gut feeling is the work approached each day? The annual report is available for download in both Swedish and English on our website. You’ll also find the link in our bio! Enjoy!

Witness the remarkable fusion of art and sustainability as Lisa Hartwig Ericson crafts a stunning glass sculpture incorporating steel from recycled tyres. Her masterful glassblowing technique transforms steel from end-of-life tyres into an exquisite work of art, challenging our perception of waste whilst celebrating creative reuse. Thank you very much to you, Lisa, for taking on this task, and thanks to @trueproduction.se for fantastically capturing this beautiful sculpture. @leceramics @aorec_

”As an artist and designer, it is essential for me to let the material be a co-creator in the process—not only because I enjoy being surprised but also because I believe this approach is crucial when we talk about sustainable development,” - Lisa Hartwig Ericson Hartwig Ericson’s work highlights an important perspective shift in how we view materials traditionally seen as waste. Tyres, specifically, come with various perceptions, often viewed simply as waste requiring management. However, in a world facing extreme over-extraction of virgin resources, reconsidering these materials becomes vital. @leceramics @aorec_ @trueproduction.se

What happens when a glass sculptor blows glass with steel wires from end-of-life tyres? This innovative experiment was undertaken by glassblower Lisa Hartwig Ericson through the creative initiative Art of Recycling, a concept launched by Swedish Tyre Recycling that invites artists to interpret tyre recycling through their own artistic expression. Lisa Hartwig Ericson, who is currently completing her Master’s degree in Craft at Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design, was immediately captivated by the potential of the materials she encountered. ”I was drawn to the small steel particles left over after a tyre’s various components have been separated. These tiny wires formed an intriguing mesh and delicate pattern, and I became curious about what might emerge when combined with transparent glass,” explains Hartwig Ericson. Art of Recycling welcomes participation from everyone within the creative sphere, including artists, creators, and designers who wish to interpret tyre recycling through their own artistic expression. @leceramics @aorec_ @trueproduction.se
