Composites allow the use of many types of recycled waste materials in the process of their design and production due to their properties, i.e., low density, the possibility of damping vibrations and noise, and a wide range of modification possibilities. The global problem related to the reuse of rubber waste prompts the authors to design, manufacture and test layered composites with rubber recyclate from industrial recycling of car tires. Design/methodology/approach For the purposes of the planned research, seven variants of materials were designed and manufactured, which differed in the percentage of recyclate (3, 5 and 7%) and the way they were arranged in the composite was changed (1, 2 and 3 layers with a constant share of 5%). The obtained material variants were subjected to strength tests (including a static tensile test). The obtained results were subjected to statistical analysis. Findings The strength tests showed significant differences in the parameters of the produced materials. The obtained results were subjected to statistical analysis, which confirmed the experimental results, giving further conclusions on the parameters of the produced and tested materials. The obtained results and analyses were used to select the most advantageous variant of the material (K1 containing one layer of rubber recyclate in 5% of the composite weight) and to eliminate non-perspective materials for further research. Research limitations/implications The obtained results and analyses were used to select the most advantageous variant of the material (K1 containing one layer of rubber recyclate in the amount of 5% of the composite weight) and to eliminate non-perspective materials for further research. Samples made using a resin with a random distribution of recyclate grains added directly to the matrix show lower strength parameters. In further analysis of the possibility of using the designed new material, the above-mentioned variant of the K1 composite is recommended, which was confirmed by earlier analyses of experimental results measurements. Practical implications Statistical analysis of the obtained results showed that all materials with the addition of rubber recyclate showed a tendency to decrease strength parameters in relation to the base composite K0. In addition, there were significant differences between the variants using recyclate, the most favourable parameters had samples made in the form of sandwich composite (one, two and three layers of rubber recyclate between the layers of glass mat). Originality/value The materials presented in the study are a new type of composites. Statistical analyses of the presented strength test results are useful for assessing the homogeneity and repeatability of measurements. The use of accurate statistical analyses is necessary to develop reliable strength characteristics of materials.
