About Bolder Industries

At Bolder Industries we are purpose-driven, we are committed, and we are making a meaningful contribution to the circular economy. By joining our high-performing team you will create something new, you will encounter exciting challenges, and you will personally have a hand in positively impacting our natural environment.

Since 2011, our team has pioneered circular solutions for rubber, plastics, and petrochemical supply chains by converting end-of-life tires into sustainable carbon black (BolderBlack®), petrochemicals (BolderOilTM), steel (BolderSteelTM), and power. We have developed a proprietary process that drastically cuts CO2 emissions and the use of water and energy while repurposing 98% of every scrap tire.

Bolder Industries Maryville is our charter facility where we mechanically shred waste tires and process the tire chips in a high heat environment that thermally decomposes millions of tires a year into sustainable raw materials that are reused in thousands of products including new tires, conveyor belts, paint, construction materials, and much more. The team at Maryville is responsible for running the equipment, maintaining the machinery, managing delicate processes, and ensuring quality product output to meet customer expectations.
