Key assessment
The forecast increase in number of end-of-life vehicles calls for further development of recycling sector to dismantle all cars according to the recent EU Directive.
Too many tyres are still being land-filled or burnt. Although there have been recent positive developments in recycling, compliance with the EC Directives on land-filling and waste combustion emissions will require considerable investment in new retreating and recycling facilities for used tyres.
