SCRAP
TIRE
BLADDERS

During a midway point in the tire manufacturing process, the "green" (i.e. uncured) tire is placed in a tire mold.  After the mold closes over the green tire, a rubber bladder is inflated inside of the tire, causing the tire to be forced against the inside surface of the mold.  This molding action shapes the tire into its final form, as well as imprinting in it the tread design and other markings.

Tire bladders have a relatively limited life, and must be disposed of after their usefulness has been expended.  Curtis TradeGroup is a broker of scrap tire bladders.
