Weibold – Tire Recycling & Pyrolysis Consulting

What Weibold – Tire Recycling & Pyrolysis Consulting does

Since 1999, Weibold (legal entity Robert Weibold GmbH, headquartered in Vienna, Austria) has operated as a specialized consulting firm serving the end-of-life tire (ELT) recycling and pyrolysis industries. The company's core deliverable is modular consulting services covering the full project lifecycle—from pre-feasibility study, market study, technology evaluation, and financial modelling, through bankable business plan, grant search and application, investor search, due diligence, and post-investment execution (used equipment search, staff recruitment, plant improvements, sales support, strategic planning). Services are sold on a project basis with quote-based pricing for enterprise modules and published price points for ancillary products (research reports at EUR 2,500, 'Speak to the Expert' sessions at EUR 250, introductory webinars at EUR 100). The firm explicitly markets its independence from any technology supplier as a differentiator.

Weibold monetizes a four-stream revenue model: (1) professional services consulting (primary), (2) one-time licensed research reports covering topics such as Global TPO Market & Pricing Outlook, Refinery Integration for TPO, REACH pathways for rCB, and the Business of Tire Pyrolysis/Recycling, (3) paid and free webinars, and (4) advertising services sold to equipment manufacturers and technology providers (newsletter banners, website banners, press releases at premium/standard/free tiers, used equipment listings). The company operates a media platform reaching 21,000+ newsletter subscribers, 10,000+ monthly website visitors, and 50,000+ professionals across social channels, and runs a used equipment marketplace for tire recycling and pyrolysis machinery.

The customer base spans plant operators, project initiators, investors and lenders (PE/VC/family offices/debt capital), tire manufacturers and scrap tire collectors, technology suppliers, researchers, and waste management contractors—primarily enterprise and mid-market clients across Europe, Asia & Oceania, Middle East & Africa, and the Americas, with named engagements across 25+ countries. The firm is founder-controlled (Robert Weibold, Founder & Managing Director), with a 16+ person team organized around four regional representatives and specialized senior consultants in pyrolysis engineering, carbon black, refining, and project finance. No external funding, M&A, or institutional ownership is disclosed.
