“The acronym ELV (End of Life Vehicles) refers to cars and vehicles that have reached the end of their useful life and are no longer roadworthy. These vehicles are dismantled or recycled to recover valuable materials including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, glass, plastics and other reusable components. Prior to recycling, hazardous materials such as fluids and batteries are removed, allowing the vehicle to be compressed into bales for easier transport and processing at recycling facilities.
Car bodies are made up of a number of different materials, the percentage of which can vary depending on the type of vehicle, model and year of manufacture. On average, the composition of a vehicle after its useful life is as follows:
Ferrous metals (steel and iron): Approximately 65-70%.
Non-ferrous metals (aluminium, copper, lead, zinc, etc.): Approximately 10 %.
Plastics and polymers: 10 % (e.g.: Approximately 10 – 15 %.
Glass: Approximately 3-5 %.
Liquids: Approx. 1-2 %.
Rubber: Approx. 3 %
Textiles (upholstery, soft furnishings, carpets): Approx. 1-2 %.”
