ERAtech receives scrap tire hauling ID.

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has issued a scrap tire transporter ID to ERAtech, a Dayton, Ohio-based company that develops programs to recycle waste materials into cement kiln fuels.

"The issuance of this ID number is the first phase of our plan to develop a scrap whole-tire collection infrastructure in both the Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio areas," Michael Linton, president of ERAtech ARF LLC, says.

"Our goal is to move up the supply chain and now provide the collection and supply of these tires to companies with whom we have an existing relationship," Linton adds.
