Pyrum receives delivery approval from tire manufacturer Continental for
ThermoTireBlack® produced at new milling and pelletizing plant
o Pyrum successfully passes further audit
o Milling and pelletizing plant transitioned to regular operation
o The new milling and pelletizing plant is expected to achieve its maximum
production capacity by the third quarter of 2026
Dillingen/Saar, May 20, 2026 - Pyrum Innovations AG ("Pyrum", the "Company",
ISIN: DE000A2G8ZX8) has received unlimited delivery approval from tire
manufacturer Continental for its ThermoTireBlack® (TTB; rCB) produced at the new
milling and pelletizing plant at its headquarters in Dillingen/Saar. As a
result, Continental has now officially commissioned all the facilities from the
plant expansion at Pyrum's main plant.
Already in April 2026, the milling and pelletizing plant was transitioned to
regular production operations at a capacity of 750 kg/h. As part of this
process, Pyrum conducted a short-term capability analysis. This analysis
demonstrated that ThermoTireBlack® ensures consistent process conditions and
stable, reproducible product quality.
Based on this, Continental has granted full supply approval for ThermoTireBlack®
(TTB) from the new milling and pelletizing plant following an audit. In
particular, the tire manufacturer highlighted the new machine's excellent
short-term performance (Ppk). The audit was conducted to approve the TTB for use
in tire production at Continental. Following the approval granted in 2024 for
the shredding plant as well as the new TAD2 and TAD3 thermolysis reactors, Pyrum
now has full supply approval for the entire plant in Dillingen/Saar.
Pascal Klein, CEO of Pyrum Innovations AG: "Continental's unlimited delivery
approval for our new milling and pelletizing plant is a major milestone for
Pyrum. It confirms not only the consistently high quality of our
ThermoTireBlack®, but also the industrial maturity of our entire production
chain. We are proud to meet the automotive industry's high standards and to
further expand our close and trusting partnership with Continental. With the
approval of the new plant, we are laying the foundation for further growth and a
significant increase in revenue in the current year."
Through additional improvement measures the target maximum TTB production volume
is expected to be achieved following a modification of the milling and
pelletizing plant in the third quarter of 2026. With the new plant, Pyrum is
significantly expanding its production capacity for ThermoTireBlack®. This not
only creates the foundation for further broadening the application areas of this
system-critical raw material, but also sustainably strengthens the company's
position as an industrial raw material producer and technology leader in the
field of end-of-life tire pyrolysis.
