Robotic Tire Recycling System Market Report 2026

The robotic tire recycling system market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.47 billion in 2025 to $1.66 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increase in end of life tires, landfill restrictions, demand for recycled rubber materials, labor safety concerns, environmental regulations.

The robotic tire recycling system market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.64 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to strict waste management policies, growth in sustainable manufacturing, demand for high purity recycled materials, expansion of green infrastructure projects, investments in smart recycling facilities. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of automated tire processing, use of ai based material identification, expansion of circular economy recycling solutions, integration of vision guided robotic sorting, growth in fully automated recycling plants.

The global expansion of recycling infrastructure is expected to drive the growth of the robotic tire recycling system market going forward. Recycling infrastructure encompasses the facilities, technologies, and systems that facilitate the collection, sorting, processing, and recovery of waste materials into reusable resources. This infrastructure is expanding due to increased investment in advanced recycling facilities, driven by government and industrial initiatives to manage growing waste volumes sustainably. Robust recycling infrastructure supports robotic tire recycling systems by ensuring a steady, organized flow of used tires for automated dismantling and material recovery, improving efficiency and throughput. For instance, in August 2025, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, enhancing curbside collection, drop-off, and processing infrastructure across the United States by 2030 would require investments between $36.5 billion and $43.4 billion. Therefore, the expansion of recycling infrastructure globally is fueling the growth of the robotic tire recycling system market.

Companies in the robotic tire recycling system market are developing automated defect detection systems to improve precision and efficiency in tire processing. These systems use sensors, imaging technologies, and software analytics to detect imperfections, measure damage, and guide robotic tools for targeted repair or processing, reducing waste and enhancing productivity. In November 2024, Italmatic S.r.l., an Italy-based tire equipment manufacturer, launched the Crater Tire CT4 Double. This system features a robotic monorail for automatic loading and unloading, dual-tire simultaneous processing, sensor-based crown defect detection, integrated abrasive repair tools, and barcode/QR code tracking synchronized with warehouse or ERP systems. These features increase processing speed, reduce manual labor, and extend tire life, promoting a more sustainable recycling and retreading process.

In March 2023, Zeppelin Systems GmbH, a Germany-based industrial recycling solutions provider, partnered with Regom to enhance AI-powered tire recycling. The partnership integrates Regom’s high-speed AI tire sorting technology into Zeppelin’s recycling systems to automate scrap tire identification and classification. This improves sorting accuracy, reduces manual labor, and increases the quality of recycled materials for new tire production, supporting the circular economy and lowering CO₂ emissions. Regom Instruments S.R.O., based in the Czech Republic, specializes in AI-driven robotic systems for sorting used tires.
