Turning waste tyres into something built to last.
Space Blue is Manchester based and on a mission to upcycle the tyres the world throws away, using graphene to make products people actually want to own. We now have a production capacity of 10 tons per day.
Creating sustainable, innovative and ethical products for all using graphene, helping our planet and its inhabitants.
Connecting ethical, environmentally responsible consumers to sustainable products.
A circular platform technology that upcycles waste tyres using graphene. Our first product is the SpaceMat®.
The problem
Recycling used car tyres is one of the biggest environmental challenges the UK faces. Several thousand tonnes of waste UK tyres are shipped abroad each year, as reported by the Guardian and Reuters, where many are burned, causing real environmental harm.
Our solution
We developed a graphene-enhanced recycled rubber product: the SpaceMat®, a durable, sustainable replacement for synthetic mats at the entrances of homes, offices, and public and industrial buildings, with the support of the University of Manchester.
SpaceMat rubber mats are manufactured in India; our graphene O-rings are manufactured in China.
