End of life vehicles
At present three of our four sites, Bellshill, Kilmarnock and Dundee are authorised treatment facilities, licensed and regulated by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency for the environmentally sound treatment of end of life vehicles.
The company inspects all vehicles on receipt and identification checks are made before they are de-registered. The battery, wheels and any hazardous parts are removed for reuse, recycling or disposal.
Purpose built de-pollution rigs allow all the operating fluids to be extracted. Specialist suction equipment is use to depolluted the vehicles of oils, brake fluid, antifreeze and other fluids in a controlled area.
All fluids are then stored in double-skinned tanks to contain them safely and avoid any leakage, contaminated fuels are then taken for further recycling.
