Dow and Fiori Group collaborate in developing a new ecosystem for recycling end-of-life parts and materials of vehicles.
The MOU focuses on the companies’ intent to handle analysis of the dismantling process and its impact on EOL waste fraction quality and suitability for recycling processes, as well as to create the new ecosystem business model under a “test and learn” practice.
In the collaboration, Fiori Group and Dow MobilityScience teams will provide timely updates on experiments’ results, collaborating transparently to create a valuable prototype for recycling EOL vehicle parts and materials.
Mauro Grotto, Vice President of Italmetalli, a Fiori Group company, commented that the collaboration allows the group to be ranked in the forefront of seeking new solutions to reach European end-of-life vehicle recycling targets.
The collaboration will be an automotive and mobility recycling program featuring the Dow Renuva portfolio of recycled materials.
“By joining forces with Fiori Group, we are strengthening our commitment to a sustainable future for the automotive industry through our leading materials in this key growth segment and their expertise in expanding the recycled fraction from end-of-life vehicles,” stated Dr Esther Quintanilla, Dow’s global MobilityScience Marketing Director.
