What is retreading?
Retreading starts with a safety inspection of the tire. The old tread is then buffed away, and a new rubber tread is applied to the bare "casing" using specialized machinery.

Retreads can provide a cost savings of up to 1/2 the price of new tires. As a result, they are widely used in large-scale operations such as trucking, busing and other commercial businesses. They are also the most environmentally friendly way of recycling used tires - in some applications, a tire can be retreaded up to 10 times. Recycled rubber from retreads, and also non-retreaded tires, can be shredded to make rubber mulch.
