WITH busted tyres building up on an aggregation of pastoral properties in Queensland’s channel country, a Sunshine Coast upcycling company has made a more than 4,232km round trip to turn them into handy infrastructure.
Most of the tyres were repurposed into rubber mats, which can be used around water troughs or to reduce slips and trips in cattle yards. The tyres were also made into silage tarp weights, water troughs and garden beds.
