Sustainable Construction Barriers Made from Recycled Tires
Pretred is an environmentally responsible company committed to inspiring sustainable development. They are “building a better way” by creating inventive solutions that utilize our waste streams that typically end in landfill and turning them into products that are high volume and high value.
Pretred’s line of sustainable barriers recycled from waste tires pairs perfectly with our Hilmerson Barrier Fence System™ and passion for lean construction product development.
“We love that 70 tires are recycled per barrier,” said Deb Hilmerson, President and CEO of Hilmerson Safety™. “One mile of Pretred’s barriers can save 1.4 million pounds of waste tires from landfill.”
The U.S. State Department recently selected Pretred to present its innovation and sustainability at the Cities Summit of Americas where Pretred’s recycled barriers were showcased with Hilmerson’s Side-Saddle Bracket™ and barrier fence.
“If you need a barrier fence around a jobsite or event that does not require a DOT-style barrier this is the perfect solution,” said Hilmerson. “It’s a leaner alternative to concrete. It’s good for the environment and you will save money on transportation costs as the product is more than half the weight of a concrete barrier.”
