eTracks Tire Management Systems successfully completed its first year of operations under Ontario’s new end of life tire regulation and Individual Producer Responsibility (IPR) model. To commemorate the milestone, eTracks announced several Awards of Excellence in appreciation of our suppliers’ invaluable help in achieving a seamless transition under the new recycling framework.

eTracks is a not-for-profit organization and the largest Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) in Ontario that works on behalf of major tire producers, automakers and tire distributors in the province. The company provides fulfillment services for its clients, in compliance with the new regulations that were rolled out in 2019 and works with a vast network of end-of-life tire collectors, haulers and processors to ensure responsible recycling of end-of-life tires.

“eTracks remains committed to building an ethical, cutting-edge and sustainable tire management system in Ontario. We are very grateful to haulers enrolled with eTracks for helping us move end-of-life tires from various collection points and to the processors who have partnered with us to ensure that the tires are recycled in accordance with the regulation,” said Steve Meldrum, CEO of eTracks Tire Management Systems.

While all the processors and haulers enrolled with eTracks were recognized, the company also conducted an extensive evaluation of service quality to identify and award its top haulers and processor. Multiple criteria such as professionalism displayed, the ease of doing business, the willingness to adapt to the new regulations, transparency in business operations, a sense of dynamism and ethics and consistent commitment to delivery performance were employed to select the top service providers of 2019.

eTracks appreciated the efforts of all their service providers and attributed their first year of success as a PRO to the support shown by their service provider network.
