Ecore was named a finalist in this category thanks to its TRUcircularity program, which recovers more than 430 million pounds (195,000 tons) of rubber waste each year, notably from used tires, and transforms it into sustainable technical surfaces. The company has developed a complete industrial model, from collection to transformation, with certified "zero waste" sites and innovative governance, including the creation of a Chief Circularity Officer position.
Since their inception, the Global Good Awards have been recognized for their independence and rigorous methodology. The awards are based on a rigorous analysis grid, validated by experts and aligned with major international sustainability standards. The Circular Economy category rewards companies that not only recycle, but also deploy systemic circularity strategies, integrated across their entire value chain. Evaluation criteria include effective waste elimination, adoption of closed-loop models, and influence in driving the sector forward.
Heir to a history that began in 1871 as Dodge Cork, Ecore has reinvented itself over the years to become an undisputed leader in rubber recycling, present in over 75 countries.
