REMADE Announces Request for Information for New York State Waste Tire Program

SEATTLE (Waste Advantage): The REMADE℠ Institute, a division of the Sustainable Manufacturing Innovation Alliance Corp., has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to solicit input from stakeholders to inform the New York State (NYS) Waste Tire Program. REMADE was selected to develop and administer the NYS Waste Tire Program earlier this year on behalf of the New York State Department of Economic Development.

The NYS Waste Tire Program will select and fund projects to develop and demonstrate technologies that will increase the use of end-of-life tires (ELT) generated across New York State. Prospective technologies include, for example, technologies to enable novel uses of whole or shredded tires; technologies for new and emerging applications for crumb rubber; technologies to enable increased retreading of tires; and technologies to incorporate materials from ELT into the manufacture of new tires.

This RFI is for information and planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a funding solicitation. REMADE anticipates issuing Requests for Proposals beginning in early Fall 2025 for this program, incorporating information provided in response to this RFI. Future funding opportunities are expected to total about $8 million in investment.
