Project Summary / Description:

As the former owner of three landfills, Tony Wibbeler experienced firsthand the immense resources required to operate recycling centers. Soon after, he set out to change the way the world deals with waste. Within a few years he founded Bolder Industries and to date BI has invented new technologies, processes and products to service growing industrial markets and establish a new circular economy in the rubber and plastics sector. This is motivated by our core principle of developing quality recycled products that perform as well or better than original raw materials and that are proven to reduce GHG, water usage, electricity usage while creating local jobs in communities around the globe. 

We plan to continue developing new products with our key customers for new applications. Furthermore, our technological capabilities allow us to extract valuable industrial chemicals that currently post corporate responsibility issues (e.g. Limonene, see investor deck). In sum, we plan to hold to our core mission by developing high-performance products at commercial scale by continuing to understand market needs and drivers. Once successful with our first waste stream (waste tires), we plan to tackle other challenging waste streams.

Mission Statement:

The values that guide us are Integrity, Sustainability, Quality, Compassion and Innovation. In 2016 we became a certified B Corporation and share the belief that business can be a force for good. We aim to do no harm and benefit all, create a better environment, care for the people and places that we touch, and create the types of jobs that are desperately needed. Through innovation we develop quality sustainable and performance based products for the world. There is no well-worn path so we must create one and everyone is asked to boldly press forward, build a smarter solution, find a better way.
