Ecolomondo Ships its First Commercial Truckload of Recovered Carbon Black Produced at its Hawkesbury TDP Facility

Core Viewpoint - Ecolomondo Corporation has successfully shipped its first commercial truckload of recovered carbon black (rCB) from its Hawkesbury TDP facility, marking a significant step in the commercialization of its sustainable scrap tire recycling technology [1][4]. Company Developments - The main offtake client for rCB has approved the quality of the rCB produced at the Hawkesbury facility after rigorous testing, focusing on various quality thresholds such as humidity, pellet size, and ash content [2][4]. - An initial order of one truckload, totaling 23 metric tons of rCB, has been issued by the main offtake client, which has already been shipped from the facility [3][4]. - The company has supplied rCB samples to another major client for testing and has received a purchase order for 5 tons of rCB for a production trial, pending positive results [5]. Facility Operations - The Hawkesbury TDP facility is expected to process approximately 1.3 million to 1.5 million scrap tires annually, producing around 4,000 metric tons of rCB, 5,000 metric tons of pyrolysis oil, 2,000 metric tons of steel, and 1,200 metric tons of process gas [5][10]. - The Shamrock facility, projected to begin construction in Q3 2025, is expected to process 5 million end-of-life tires per year, yielding approximately 15,000 metric tons of rCB and 18,000 metric tons of oil, among other outputs [12]. Environmental Impact - The TDP process significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions, with a 90% reduction in GHG emissions compared to the production of virgin carbon black. The Hawkesbury and Shamrock facilities are expected to reduce CO2 emissions by 15,000 and 45,000 tons per year, respectively [19]. Strategic Vision - Ecolomondo aims to be a leading player in the cleantech sector, focusing on the production and supply of recovered resources to contribute to a circular economy [13][14]. - The company plans to expand aggressively in North America and Europe, leveraging its proprietary technology and ongoing research and development efforts [14]. Certification and Quality Assurance - The Hawkesbury facility has received the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), enhancing the commercial value of its end-products through traceability in the supply chain [15].
