The Tire Stewardship Manitoba (TSM) Community Demonstration Grant Program has raised the amount of matching funds available for the use of recycled tire products made from Manitoba tires in projects delivered by local governments, community and youth groups, Aboriginal organizations, and First Nation communities. Eligible applicants (communities and non-profit organizations) may now receive onetime matching grants up to $20,000 to use and benefit from a wide range of recycled tire products.
Products made from recovered plastic bottles include pillows, comforters, sleeping bags, scrub pads, furniture (seat backs), mattress pads, automotive trunk liners, grill covers and geotextiles for road bed and pond liners. (Source - Wellman Inc. Info)
