What we do

Driving sustainable outcomes for Australia's used tyres is our priority.

We run the national and voluntary Tyre Product Stewardship Scheme (TPSS) to help reduce the environmental, health and safety impacts of tyres which reach their end of life in Australia.

Australia’s Used Tyre Supply Chain & Fates - Report

Every year, Australia generates approximately 67 million end-of-life (EOL) tyres.

Understanding how these tyres flow through the supply chain — from generation and collection through to processing, reuse, or export — is critical to achieving more sustainable, transparent, and traceable outcomes.

This report provides a snapshot of the national used tyre supply chain, including:

Estimated volumes of tyres entering and exiting each stage of the system
Proportions recovered for recycling, repurposing, or energy recovery
Pathways for domestic processing versus export
Key data sources used to monitor and report on tyre flows

This information supports Tyre Stewardship Australia’s strategies of strengthening environmental outcomes, promoting market development, and identifying opportunities for intervention across the tyre lifecycle.
