The project intends to demonstrate the technical and market viability for ground tyres, produced by a heat and chemical free process. So far two trial runs have been carried out in Spain and the problems arising have proved to be both technical and socio-economic. The project will refine the process and iron out the glitches. Once the process is optimised, the market in western, northern, central and eastern Europe will be studied.

The final phase of the project will explore the product’s market viability in a real scale test with results fed back into the production process if necessary, giving a final, optimised model, ready to be used.
