Montreal, QC – TheNewswire - January 14, 2026 – Ecolomondo Corporation (TSXV: ECM) (OTCQB: ECLMF) (the “Company” or “Ecolomondo”), a leading Canadian innovator in sustainable scrap tire recycling technology, concludes 2025 with great enthusiasm. The year 2025 was transformational for the Company, its Hawkesbury TDP facility and its Thermal Decomposition (“TDP”) proprietary technology.

 

During 2025, the Company achieved several key milestones that materially improved plant efficiency and output at its Hawkesbury TDP facility, marking a new phase in the Company’s operational development. In January 2025, the Company took delivery of new milling equipment required to process recovered carbon black (“rCB”). Commissioning and start-up were successfully completed in June 2025, with commercial production commencing in July 2025.

 

Operational performance improved steadily throughout the year. In October, the Company successfully completed 4 double TDP batches over 4 consecutive days, all operating in automatic mode at full batch capacity. This was followed in November by a series of 4 full-capacity TDP batches completed within a single day, achieving an optimal output of 60 metric tons, again entirely in automatic mode.

 

The Hawkesbury plant demonstrated consistent production ramp-up over the course of the year, completing 17 full-capacity batches in the first quarter, 33 in the second quarter, 29 in the third quarter, and 69 in the fourth quarter. Building on this momentum, the Company plans to continue increasing production output at the Hawkesbury facility in 2026.

 

Increased output at the Hawkesbury facility drove higher revenues in the third and fourth quarters of 2025 compared to earlier periods. Commercial production of rCB commenced in July 2025, and by year-end the Company had shipped 22 truckloads to off-take customers, representing approximately $800,000 in revenue.

The TDP process also produces high-quality tire-derived oil (“TDO”), a sustainable feedstock used in the manufacture of carbon black by a leading global producer. During 2025, the Company shipped 15 tanker loads of TDO with an approximate value of $310,000. Repeat purchases by off-take customers demonstrate the quality, consistency, and market acceptance of products generated by Ecolomondo’s TDP technology.

 

Throughout 2025, the Company continued to actively promote its TDP technology. In August 2025, following a series of positive operational milestones, Ecolomondo entered into a binding joint venture agreement with Alternativas Riojanas Eólicas y Solares S.L. (“ARESOL”) of Spain to develop 4 turnkey TDP facilities in Europe.

 

From a financing perspective, the Company completed 2 private placements during 2025. The first closed on May 2 for gross proceeds of C$1.0 million, followed by a second closing on June 23 for gross proceeds of $500,000. In addition, in January 2025 the Company secured a C$2.0 million credit facility with Export Development Canada (“EDC”), primarily to finance the acquisition of new milling equipment for the Hawkesbury plant.

 

On the corporate front, Ecolomondo appointed ForvisMazars S.E.N.C.R.L. as its new auditor, replacing Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton, and welcomed Frank Kelly and Véronique Laberge to its Board of Directors. In October 2025, Mario Mantaci, P.Eng., M.Eng., joined the Company as Chief Technology Officer (“CTO”) to support the continued advancement of Ecolomondo’s TDP technology and to oversee the final stages of the Hawkesbury facility’s full production ramp-up.

 

“2025 was a transformational year for the Company. Increased production, higher revenues, and improved overall performance are very encouraging, and we are looking ahead to an unprecedented 2026. As we begin the new year, I would like to thank all stakeholders for their unwavering support and wish everyone a successful 2026,” said Eliot Sorella, Executive Chairman of the Company.

Revenue Streams of TDP Facilities

 

Revenue streams from the Hawkesbury TDP facility come the sale of end-products manufactured on-site, namely rCB, oil, steel and syngas, as well as tipping fees for the disposal of scrap tires.

 

Our Mission, Vision & Strategy

 

Ecolomondo’s mission is to be a contributing participant in a dynamic Circular Economy and to increase shareholder value by producing and supplying large quantities of recovered resources to be re-used in the manufacture of new products.

 

Ecolomondo’s vision is to be a leading producer and reseller of recovered resources by building and operating TDP facilities, strategically located in industrialized countries, close to feedstock, labor and offtake clients.

Our strategy is to become a major global builder and operator of TDP turnkey facilities, for now specializing in the processing of ELTs. Our intent is to expand aggressively in North America and Europe. Our experience and modular technology should help us get there faster and better. We plan to keep performing ongoing research and development to ensure that Ecolomondo remains technologically advanced.

 

About TDP

 

The TDP process is technically proven and more advanced than most other pyrolysis technologies. Over the years, our Technological teams were able to overcome all uncertainties that plagued most competitors especially in these areas: pre-filtration, reactor cooling, reactor rotation, water recycling, processing of rCB, (hydrocarbon removal), mass monitoring, heat curve development, humidity and water removal, safety testing, system automation, emissions control and monitoring.

 

TDP is Environmentally Friendly – CO2 Reduction

 

By producing rCB, TDP reduces GHG emissions by 90% versus the production of virgin carbon black. The production of rCB at the Hawkesbury and Shamrock facilities are expected to reduce CO2 emissions by 22,400 and 67,200 tons per year, respectively.
