Crumb rubber – the working idea of a successful and profitable business

Rubber crumb coating is the trend of this year. Moreover, the production of this coating is a very popular direction, which can bring a serious profit. There is practically no competition in this niche, there are no large monopolies either. In addition, there are all new areas where this coating is applied.

Why is the idea so attractive?
What are the advantages of rubber crumb coating? This modern material has a lot of positive qualities that attract consumers:
The coating looks expensive, high quality;
Wide range of colors;
Large size range;
Various thickness;
Impact resistant surface;
Does not slip;
Moisture does not accumulate on it;
Does not lose brightness of paints under the influence of solar radiation;
Heat resistance;
Long service life – more than 40 years.
Manufacturing technology is quite simple – a mixture of glue with crumb rubber and the desired color of the dye is heated to a certain temperature.

Market and features of production coverage
Before the idea to begin to implement, you need to analyze the demand and determine the potential market. Since the application of rubber crumb coating is quite versatile, then sales can be found in different directions. So, the rubber coating will be in demand for:

Creation of a covering on playgrounds;
Improvement of the local area in the private sector;
Equipment of production sites with a non-slip surface, which reduces injuries;
Floor coverings in washing and waiting rooms in saunas and baths;
Coverage of the blind area and the area near the rinks or pools;
Floor coverings on farms.

Production technology is so simple that special skills are not required. This direction can even be done as an extension of the service sector.

For example, tire owners can use old and unnecessary tires and tires to optimize working space and generate additional income from used parts. They are the basis for creating such a convenient product in the future.

The composition of the rubber coating is as follows:
rubber crumb;
polyurethane adhesive;
powder dye.
Car tires and tires are crushed to obtain a homogeneous mass. This raw material is 85% of the total weight of the finished coating. It should be noted that there is another direction – the production of rubber tiles, but it is somewhat different from what is being considered now. Directly for the production of rubber crumb will need quite expensive equipment, but it quickly pays for itself.

To expand the range, as an option, you can add in the form of drawings rubber granules of different colors.

The production process is called pressing, and it looks like this:
rubber crumb, polyurethane glue and dye of the desired color in the ratio 85: 10: 5 are loaded into the bunker, everything is mixed;
the mixture is filled with molds;
set the desired vulcanization temperature depending on the parameters of the tile;
finished tiles are removed from the mold after cooling.
Rubber-production

There is a second option for making rubber crumb coating, vibrating casting: instead of molds, molds are poured in the vibrating table for two days.

Where to begin?
In the presence of 1.7 million rubles for the initial start, you can immediately rent a room for the equipment of the workshop, buy molds or a vibrating table, equipment for crushing rubber, and start producing coating from crumbs.

If you buy a chopper, it will be able to produce almost 2.5 tons of crumbs per day. The average price of a kilogram for sales fluctuates around 12 rubles.

Of course, attractive numbers do not guarantee successful developments. It is necessary to work out each step, express it in a business plan with a time period of at least 3 years. We will have to rely on a certain sales market, that is, simply to start production without sales is an absolutely unsuccessful undertaking.

Costs and payback
If we talk about the payback time of running production, everything is individual and depends on the scale of the enterprise itself and on the success of the sale of finished products. On average, this figure ranges from one and a half to two years.

The calculation of costs (for the purchase of basic equipment for the organization of the workshop) will be approximately as follows:

forms for the press – 30 thousand rubles. for one piece;
press – about 300 thousand rubles;
mixing bin approx. 200 thousand rubles;
camera for drying the finished coating – the cost of scrap materials will be required, and so – you can do it yourself.
