Question by dinocor1: How can I recycle tiny scrap pieces of rubber?
I work for a pool/highway supply distributor. We have barrels upon barrels of tiny pieces of scrap rubber. We are unsure of what to do with this scrap. Does anyone have any ideas about how we can recycle or reuse this rubber? We really don’t want to contribute to the landfills if we don’t have to! Thanks!

you can’t re-use those, they get nasty. Wrap them up and throw them away.

THERE IS A COMPANY CALLED W.T.S. WASTE TYRE SERVICES IN WOODVILLE NR SWADLINCOTE DERBY’S WHO RECYCLE SCRAP TYRES MULCH THE RUBBER UP INTO PELLETS AND THEN SELL IT ON TO A COMPANY WHO MAKE RUBBER PLAYGROUND MATTING MAYBE THIS WOULD BE A GOOD PLACE TO START LOOKING. MAYBE CALL THEM AND ASK OR LOOK UP THE MATTING MANUFACTURERS YOURSELF ON THE INTERNET. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU SOME.
