Tire-derived aggregate (TDA) is made from shredded scrap tires and is used in a wide range of construction projects. These uses include retaining wall backfill, lightweight embankment fill, landslide stabilization, vibration mitigation, and various landfill applications. For more information, please visit CalRecycle’s main TDA website.

TDA is…

  • Cost-effective: Less expensive than other lightweight fill materials.
  • High-performing: Lightweight, free-draining characteristics help solve engineering problems.
  • Environmentally friendly: TDA reduces need for mined resources such as pumice and gravel.
