Birla Carbon Spotlights Circular Grades at IRC 2026
Birla Carbon showcased its Continua™ Sustainable Carbonaceous Material and Sustainable Carbon Black portfolio at IRC 2026 in Nagoya, Japan, positioning the recycled and bio-based grades for tire applications.
The portfolio is backed by ISCC PLUS certification, and Birla is contributing to ASTM standards work — including the D36 committee on recovered carbon black — to give buyers clearer, more consistent specification language for circular material.
That standards effort matters commercially: as recovered and sustainable grades gain recognized specifications, they become easier to evaluate, compare and adopt across the supply chain.
