New Delhi, Jan 22, 2025: Epsilon Carbon, a global leader in carbon black manufacturing, has launched Terrablack, a product line that aims to shape the carbon black sector with sustainability at its core.
Terrablack is a product designed to address the growing demand for sustainable carbon black. Using recovered Carbon Black (rCB) and Tyre Derived Oil (TDO), this product line aims to shape the future of carbon black production. It offers high-performance, eco-friendly solutions that meet the needs of both the tyre and non-tyre industries. After 24 months of in-depth testing and collaboration, Terrablack brings together innovation and responsibility in complete balance.
The Terrablack portfolio includes Terrablack 3310, engineered for heavy-duty applications like tyre treads, offering superior wear resistance and durability. Terrablack 6615, is designed for flexibility and resilience, ideal for tyre sidewalls, hoses, belts, and sealing systems. Both products are formulated to complement traditional virgin carbon black, delivering the same quality with a significantly reduced environmental impact. The Terrablack products can lower the Global Warming Potential (GWP) by 40-50% as the case may be, supporting global environmental goals and aiding compliance with Tyre Extended Producer Responsibility standards.
Connect with 300+ corporates, foundations and social enterprise leaders.
Vikram Handa, Managing Director of Epsilon Carbon, said, “Terrablack is not just a product; it is a promise—a promise to innovate, protect the planet, and drive industries toward a greener future. We believe that innovation, performance and sustainability should go hand in hand, and Terrablack is a testament to that belief and it’s a significant step in our mission to redefine the carbon black industry and pave the way for a more sustainable tomorrow.”
Looking ahead, Epsilon Carbon is advancing its sustainability commitment with the planned establishment of a fully integrated tyre recycling plant in Karnataka, expected to be operational by FY26. This facility will recycle 30,000 tonnes of tyres annually, generating 9,500 tonnes of recovered carbon black and 12,000 tonnes of tyre-derived oil. This initiative reinforces Epsilon Carbon’s commitment to turning the concept of a circular economy into a practical reality. With Terrablack, Epsilon Carbon is setting a new standard, proving that sustainability does not have to come at the cost of performance.
The unveiling took place in the presence of Sajjan Jindal, Chairman and MD – JSW Group, Vikram Handa, Managing Director - Epsilon Carbon, Gaurav Mathur, CEO, and Desh Deepak Misra, President - Carbon Black business at the Bharat Mobility Show’s India International Tyre Exhibition, New Delhi.
