Tyre recycling plant in Newcastle receives government support

# Cryochem, a tyre recycling plant in Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal, has received about seven-million-rand in government support. Using pyrolysis, the company converts scrap tyres into fuel, carbon-black, and metals. With over 20 staff, it seeks more machinery to boost production and compete globally. The KwaZulu-Natal Legislature’s Quality of Life Committee recently visited the company, praising its role in youth employment and green economy development.
