'The automotive industry is showing great commitment to making its contribution to sustainable practices at an early stage in the development and manufacturing process,' declared Dr Tobias Bahr at the annual International Automobile Recycling Congress in the German capital Berlin. Manufacturers are 'working hard' to meet the EU's 85% recyclability and 95% recoverability targets, he insisted.
The automotive industry is also on board with the EU's new Circular Economy package - to the extent that it has already 'embedded' the circular concept in the majority of its activities across the continent, according to Bahr who is environmental policy director at the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association.
