End-of-life vehicles

The owner delivers the vehicle to an authorised take-back partner. After verification, a Certificate of Destruction (CoD) is issued in compliance with legal requirements.

The battery is removed and airbags neutralised. All fuels and operating fluids (oils, brake fluid, coolant and refrigerant gases) are safely drained and treated.

Reusable parts and systems are dismantled for resale or remanufacture. Materials such as plastics and glass may be removed for recycling where it is economically viable.

Environmentally hazardous substances are collected and transferred to specialised, licensed facilities for recovery or compliant disposal.

Pre-treated vehicle shells are sent to shredding facilities, where they are broken up and separated into material fractions for further recovery operations.

Separated fractions are processed using advanced technologies such as magnets, eddy currents and flotation to recover secondary raw materials.

Recovered materials are recycled or used for energy recovery, including applications in metallurgy and cement production, enabling up to 95% vehicle recovery and minimising landfill waste.
