Viva Recycling Of South Carolina, LLC To Establish Anderson County Operations<\/strong><\/p>\n

$6.9 Million Investment Expected To Create 14 Jobs<\/em><\/p>\n

COLUMBIA, S.C. \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0Viva Recycling of South Carolina<\/a>, a tire recycler and rubber manufacturer, announced today its decision to establish a new facility in Anderson County. The $6.9 million investment is expected to create 14 new jobs in the area over the next five years.<\/p>\n

Established in 2011 and headquartered in Moncks Corner, Viva Recycling of South Carolina processes scrap tires to produce environmentally responsible recycled rubber products for home, business and recreation. These tires are collected from a variety of sources throughout the Southeast, including cars, light and heavy trucks, landfills, municipalities and tire retailers.<\/p>\n

Utilizing state-of-the-art recycling processes, the company separates the scrap tires and other selected industrial rubber scrap into their component parts \u2013 rubber, steel and fiber. While the steel and fiber are recycled, the rubber is sized, shaped, colored and molded into a wide range of sustainable products for various industrial, commercial and residential applications.<\/p>\n

Viva Recycling of South Carolina\u2019s products include landscape mulch, playground safety flooring, artificial field in-fill, rubber sidewalks, rubber pavers, equestrian flooring, rubberized asphalt and many more items.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s new facility, located at 3520 Abbeville Highway in Anderson, is expected to be operational by December 2014 and will implement the same recycling model used at the Moncks Corner operation, where it has recycled over four million tires per year.<\/p>\n

Viva Recycling of South Carolina will start hiring for new positions in September 2014. Those interested in applying should contact Toni Everett at\u00a0843-761-7955<\/a>.<\/p>\n
