About ZARE

The ZARE initiative is an association of 17 companies organized within the German Federal Association of Tire Dealers and Vulcanizers (BRV). The ZARE partners have made it their mission to raise awareness of proper used tire recycling in Germany. With 26 locations, the ZARE partners provide almost nationwide coverage in Germany and the Netherlands. The ZARE partners do not hold any additional certification compared to certified used tire disposal companies that are not part of the initiative. The certificate according to the Waste Management Companies Ordinance/BRV requirements profile alone guarantees environmentally sound used tire disposal. The ZARE initiative makes this publicly known.
