According to a study by the Department of Environment of the Basque Government, 40,000 tons of waste from obsolete vehicles are generated in the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country every year. 75% are metallic and the rest,
- 9.9% Peumatic,
- 5% plastics,
- 4.1% liquid waste and
- Another 6% are waste.
Today most of the metal waste is recycled and 50% of the tires are collected for majority use in the cement industry. Everything else is deposited in landfills with serious environmental problems.
In this sense, the Department of Environment aims to reduce the amount of waste from obsolete vehicles by removing non-recyclable materials such as seat foams, textiles, plastics, etc.
