• Supported by TIP and conducted by Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., a new study has successfully tested an improved Pyrolysis-GC/MS (Py-GC/MS) method for quantifying tire and road wear particles (TRWP) in soil and sediment, confirming robustness and accuracy across the varying compositions of tires from different regions.
• The findings support harmonization efforts and may inform future refinement of standardized analytical methods for TRWP measurement such as ISO/DIS 21396¹, ISO/AWI 20593² and others.

GENEVA, November 13, 2025 /3BL/ – The Tire Industry Project (TIP) announces the publication of a new scientific study that confirms the robustness of an improved Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) method for quantifying tire and road wear particles (TRWP) in environmental samples.

Titled “Pyrolysis-GC/MS calibration for environmental quantification of tire tread: Standards and marketplace averaged elastomer subunit profiles” and published in the peer-reviewed journal Chemosphere’s September 2025 volume, the study validates a Py-GC/MS protocol that now improves accuracy and reproducibility in quantifying TRWPs in soil and sediment, even when particle composition varies by either geography or tire manufacturing method. The research was conducted by Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. and supported by TIP as part of its ongoing commitment to advancing tire wear emissions science.

Why It Matters

TRWPs are receiving increased attention from scientists and regulators, and accurate measurement is essential to understanding their potential impact on ecosystems and human health. This study addresses a long-standing challenge: the variability in rubber composition between calibration standards and real-world tire samples. By using market-weighted average elastomer profiles from the US and EU, researchers refined the Py-GC/MS protocol to reduce measurement bias and improve consistency across diverse environmental samples.

Py-GC/MS is recognized as the most advanced and accurate method of TRWP analysis by the scientific community. In the current study, researchers analyzing cryo-milled tire tread (CMTT) samples representative of market averages from the US and EU found that the samples contained similar styrene and butadiene content across both regions. By modifying the Py-GC/MS protocol to leverage this finding, the researchers confirmed the mitigation of known sources of environmental measurement bias, strengthening the method’s ability to account for real-world variability in TRWP composition.

Key Findings:

• Improved calibration: Uses representative cryo-milled tire tread (CMTT) samples to ensure accurate quantification across geographies.
• Standardization support: Contributes to the development of international standards such as ISO/DIS 21396 and ISO/AWI 20593.
• Scalability: Calibration standards remain stable for up to three months at 4°C, enabling efficient batch preparation and multi-laboratory application.

“This study represents a significant step forward in harmonizing methodologies and standardizing TRWP quantification,” said Larisa Kryachkova, Executive Director of TIP. “By advancing the Py-GC/MS method, which TIP has supported through years of sustained research and partnership, we’re ultimately strengthening the global scientific ecosystem’s ability to collaboratively understand and address tire wear emissions.”

Client background

Our client, a quality assurance, quality control and managerial services company in the oil and gas industry, serves clients mainly across the Appalachian basin and along the east coast. The business owners have more than 30 years of combined experience in the industry and are focused on providing reputable and knowledgeable inspectors that their clients can rely on. They strive to demonstrate their commitment to integrity, safety and quality in everything they do. Their workforce is mainly in the field, with a central office location for their back-office team.

Business challenge

The client began their relationship with Baker Tilly through engaging with our outsourced accounting, tax and benefits administration teams. These service teams provided outsourced payroll processing, Affordable Care Act (ACA) compliance, and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) compliance reporting, among other services.

The client’s overall goal was to reduce the amount of time they were spending on manual payroll and HR activities and to remain compliant with all necessary regulations. The client was performing manual operational tasks daily and weekly to keep these types of processes moving and provide documentation to the service teams. Baker Tilly’s outsourced accounting team brought in the outsourced HR team, who saw an opportunity to implement an automated and streamlined approach to make the client’s overall experience more efficient and provide them more time to focus on strategic improvements and growth. Additionally, the added services would provide the necessary HR regulatory compliance oversight and help solve the local tax jurisdictions and withholdings challenges for employees in the field that the client was struggling with.

Results

Through working with Baker Tilly’s outsourced HR and payroll team, the client became compliant with all federal, state and local payroll taxes across their service area. The amount of time spent on payroll processing was reduced to a bi-weekly review of the payroll registers that could be performed in under 30 minutes instead of hours, and ACA compliance and reporting was reduced to an annual review of the employee reports that can be completed in hours instead of a few days. The client also received guidance on various employee relations issues, which helped mitigate the potential of a lawsuit from emerging.

By reducing the amount of time spent on these operational activities, the client was able to refocus their time and energy on more strategic endeavors for the company. This ultimately contributed to the client having the time to launch a new, separate entity, expanding the portfolio of companies for the owners. By installing the same payroll and HR automations and level of support as the original business, the new entity also had the foundation of streamlined and integrated HR and payroll systems installed, making tracking, reporting, and staying in compliance relatively simple and easy.

Baker Tilly solution

The outsourced HR and payroll team implemented tailored solutions for the client, including a customized time tracking system that could manage employees working across multiple customers in multiple states with varying pay rates each day. This system automatically loads the list of customers, states, and pay rates per staff member to simplify employee time entry and increase accuracy. The outsourced HR and payroll team also worked collaboratively with the outsourced accounting team to integrate ADP Workforce Now, the payroll system the client now uses, with QuickBooks Online to streamline data flows and ensure compliance.

The client and outsourced HR and payroll team continue to meet regularly to keep pace with how the client is changing and growing, to ensure policies and procedures are accurate and in compliance with all federal, state, and local payroll and HR regulations.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., November 13, 2025 /3BL/ – DP World, a global leader in logistics and supply chain solutions, has released a new white paper titled “Peak Season Ready: DP World’s Q4 Fulfillment Checklist for Brands.” The publication comes as the National Retail Federation (NRF) forecasts U.S. holiday spending will surpass $1 trillion for the first time, underscoring both the scale of opportunity and the heightened pressure on retailers to perform during the 2025 peak season.

Designed as a practical playbook for consumer brands, the report helps U.S. retailers navigate fluctuating sales growth, rising returns, and persistent supply chain volatility. Drawing on 2024 retail performance data and insights from the NRF, McKinsey & Company, and the U.S. Trade Representative, it outlines actionable strategies to help brands build agility into their fulfillment operations and protect profitability during the industry’s most critical quarter.

Brittany Caskey, Chief Commercial Officer, DP World in the Americas, said: “Retailers are entering a unique peak season – one defined by both record spending and record pressure. Consumers are prioritizing value and speed, so brands need the flexibility to adapt quickly without eroding margins. This white paper provides practical tools to help them build that agility into their fulfillment networks.”

U.S. Brands Face a “Do More With Less” Peak Season

The paper reveals that holiday sales returns are expected to approach $900 billion, continuing to pressure margins across the sector.

It identifies the top four fulfillment risks for the season:

• Spiky demand patterns driven by mobile commerce and promotional peaks;
• Carrier congestion and surcharges, with on-time performance fluctuating from 90–97%;
• Escalating returns, which can erode up to 66% of product value without modern triage and resale processes; and
• Tariff-related cost uncertainty from recent Section 301 adjustments reshaping landed costs.

Checklist for Fulfillment Agility

To mitigate these pressures, DP World’s Q4 checklist highlights five focus areas:

1. Demand & Inventory: Regionalize stock to reduce time-in-transit and hedge against carrier constraints.
2. Space & Labor: Leverage flexible, multi-customer warehousing to scale efficiently without fixed leases.
3. Fulfillment Design: Build regional fulfillment waves and exception playbooks for disruptions.
4. Transportation: Deploy multi-carrier routing to avoid surcharges and caps.
5. Customer Experience & Returns: Tighten reverse logistics workflows for faster recovery and resale value.

DP World’s U.S. Network: Flexibility at Scale

DP World operates multi-customer warehouses in Pennsylvania, Mississippi, and California, providing coast-to-coast coverage that reduces lead times and enables same- or next-day delivery to dense consumer zones. Each location offers scalable pallet positions, seasonal labor programs, and integrated returns processing to help brands recover value from returned inventory.

The company’s integrated ports-to-warehouse-to-last-mile network connects these facilities directly to import gateways, allowing retailers to rebalance inventory and respond dynamically to shifts in demand or carrier performance.

A Long-Term View: Building Competitive Advantage Through Agility

The white paper concludes that as AI-driven forecasting, sustainability mandates, and Gen Z consumer habits reshape the retail landscape, supply chain agility will become a long-term differentiator – not just a seasonal necessity.

DP World’s network of 36 logistics facilities across the U.S. and 14 ports and terminals across the Americas enables brands to access flexible, end-to-end solutions that connect the factory floor to the customer’s door.

DALLAS, November 13, 2025 /3BL/ – The Mary Kay Ash Foundation^®, a champion of women’s health innovation for nearly three decades, announced a $500,000 grant to Baylor Scott & White Dallas Foundation to accelerate a pioneering triple-negative breast cancer clinical trial and advance early detection initiatives that shift care from reactive to proactive at the newly established Texas Cancer Interception Institute.

The two-fold grant includes: 

• $100,000 in continued support of a forward-thinking TRIM-EBC Clinical Trial led by world-renowned Celebrating Women chair for Breast Cancer Research, Joyce O’Shaughnessy, MD. The trial explores the potential of weight-loss medications to reduce recurrence risk in overweight breast cancer patients.
• The second part is a multi-year gift to the Texas Cancer Interception Institute, which aims to detect and intercept cancer at its earliest stages – when it is most treatable, will help shift women’s cancer narratives from “I have cancer,” to “I have cancer, but we caught it early.” Designed to be deployed on a broad scale, the program aims to revolutionize early detection and intervention strategies for better breast cancer survivorship and beyond.

This latest commitment underscores a shared mission between the two organizations: to invest in transformative cancer research that improves outcomes and brings us closer to curing cancers that disproportionately affect women. Over the past two decades, the Mary Kay Ash Foundation® has contributed $1.3 million to the Baylor Scott & White Dallas Foundation, reflecting an enduring alliance rooted in scientific discovery and compassion.
