Bangkok, Thailand – In the rapidly evolving world of circular materials and sustainable manufacturing, few names resonate as strongly as Martin von Wolfersdorff. Founder of Wolfersdorff Consulting Berlin and widely regarded as one of the most influential voices in recovered carbon black (rCB) and circular carbon technologies, Martin has dedicated his career to bridging the gap between science, business, and storytelling.
With a background in chemical engineering and more than 25 years of experience across global leaders such as Cabot Corporation, Americhem, and Huntsman, he has transformed himself from a corporate executive into a globally sought-after strategic advisor, market scout, and industry catalyst. His work spans across the tire, carbon black, pyrolysis, and polymer industries — helping companies navigate the complex transition toward sustainability, carbon neutrality, and circular economy business models.
Martin’s influence extends far beyond consulting. As co-founder of the Recovered Carbon Black Conference (Smithers), now recognized as the world’s most important gathering for the rCB and tire-recycling
community, he created a global platform that brings together scientists, recyclers, investors, and tire manufacturers to share knowledge, define standards, and shape the industry’s future. His reports, such as Prospects for Recovered Carbon Black 2024 and Technology Forecast for Sustainable Carbon Black to 2041, have become essential references for decision-makers worldwide.
