Today we are happy to share an exciting partnership announcement 🌱 Autocirc has togehter with Scholz Group (Scholz Recycling GmbH) signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to form a strategic partnership aimed at expanding our reach and operations across key European markets: 🤝 Autocirc will collaborate with Scholz Group, a global leader in steel and metal scrap trading, processing, and recycling. This partnership leverages Scholz Group’s extensive network of recycling facilities, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe, to support Autocirc’s expansion and enhance our operational efficiency. 🌍 By integrating our core operations in recycling and car dismantling, we aim to significantly boost the volume, quality, and availability of parts from end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) and recycled high-quality raw materials. Our CEO at Autocirc, Petteri Saarinen, expressed his excitement, stating, “This cooperation perfectly complements our established European expansion strategy. We are gratified to have succeeded in signing this LOI and look forward to a partnership that aligns with our vision of promoting sustainable automotive recycling. This collaboration will expand our geographic footprint and enhance our ability to provide quality car parts to our customers.” Henry Qin, CEO of Scholz Group, added, “We are excited to join forces with Autocirc in this strategic partnership. Our combined expertise and resources will drive significant environmental benefits and support the circular economy. Together, we aim to set new standards in the automotive recycling industry, ensuring the efficient processing and reuse of valuable materials from ELVs.” Stay tuned for more updates as we embark on this exciting journey together! 🌱 #Autocirc #ScholzGroup #SustainableRecycling #CircularEconomy #AutomotiveRecycling

A major car manufacturer recently said, “Decarbonization will only work if we come together and then jointly bring sustainable ideas to life.”   The innovative collaboration between Woco Group, Mercedes-Benz AG, and TRS - Tyre Recycling Solutions SA led to the development of a locking disc for door damping and sealing, incorporating 15% TRS TyreXol™ rubber powder. This achievement was celebrated at the 22. SPE Automotive Award Night in Bonn, where it secured third place in the Body Interior category. The joint effort exemplifies the commitment to accelerating the circular economy among car manufacturers, tier, and raw material suppliers. With the average vehicle currently using around 50 kg of rubber, the development of the sealing disc marks a significant step towards sustainability. Here's to hoping it sets the stage for greater industry advancements.

#TechTuesday: Battery recycling for a sustainable European circular economy🌐🔋 The increasing spread of battery electric vehicles leads to questions about the ecological footprint of vehicle batteries, but also about raw material security and availability and thus the competitiveness of German and European industries. In this context, local battery recycling and the return of raw materials is an important building block for a European circular economy. For batteries from electric cars, the first recycling step in all common process routes is the disassembly of the battery packs into battery modules or cells. Automated mechanical disassembly and sorting of the components can remove valuable or pollutant-containing components at an early stage, significantly reducing the cost- and energy-intensive pyro- and hydrometallurgical processing of the so-called black mass, the raw material mixture that remains after the batteries have been shredded. Liebherr is taking strides in this domain, developing automated disassembly strategies within the federal project "ZIRKEL". Automated processes not only ensure a high recycling rate but also prioritize the health and safety of workers by minimizing risks associated with high voltage, hazardous substances, and fire hazards. The first pilot plant went into operation in November 2023 at the Open Hybrid LabFactory research campus in Wolfsburg.

So today I travelled to the Engine Sheds in North London at the kind invitation of Outokumpu to talk to Lindner Stefan and Markus Buckner about the role of low carbon, recycled stainless steel in automotive applications for current and future vehicles. Too often considered an exotic material for automotive environments, the data suggest otherwise. Some of the benefits discussed include weight reduction, durability, reduced carbon footprint, better impact performance, fire protection for battery packs, coating-free application, hygiene and the adoption of novel manufacturing methods such as folded assemblies. Plenty of technical articles will emerge from this meeting. Sustainable Engineering #automotive #manufacturing #stainlesssteel #sustainability

German battery recycling start-up cylib, which counts Porsche AG and Bosch as backers, broke ground on its first European industrial plant in western Germany, the company said on Monday. The 236,000-square-foot industrial plant at Chempark Dormagen, between Duesseldorf and Cologne, is set to commence operations in 2026, with a recycling capacity of 30,000 tons of end-of-life batteries per year, according to Cylib. 👉Follow Battery Market News for the latest happenings in the battery industry and more! #PorscheAG #Porsche #Cylib #Bosch #Battery #BatteryProduction #BatteryMarket #BatteryMarketNews #BatteryNews #BatteryMarketTrends #BatteryNewsUpdates #BatteryNews2024 #eMobility #Battery #BatteryProduction #BatteryNewsPage #BatteryResearch #Batteries #CleanEnergy #BatteryIndustryNews

Welcome to the second day of the EuroBLECH fair. Yesterday, during the opening day we were able to chat with Unai Lopez, CEO of Fagor Arrasate, who gave us a summary of the innovations that we are presenting in Hannover, and our objectives at the fair. Fagor Arrasate wants to be a relevant technological player for its customers in the 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 that our communities are promoting. We are aware that supporting only the paradigm shift associated with electric mobility only partially addresses the problem. We would be doing our communities a poor service if our cars and other electric means of transport are recharged with electrons of non-renewable origin, unsustainable and linked to fossil fuels. That is why we are also positioning ourselves upstream of this chain, contributing our technology and know-how to the processes of 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆. If you are at Euroblech, stop by our stand and we will be able to discuss our 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, such as the high-speed presses for rotor and stator laminations, the slitters for processing electrical steel, and other technologies in which we are world leaders, such as tandem press lines, transfer presses, hydraulic presses, laser blanking lines, lines to manufacture composites parts and automation technologies. See you there! 📍 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝟭𝟬𝟰, 𝗛𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝟮𝟳 #EuroBlech2024 #FagorArrasate #EnergyTransition #ElectricalSteel #SlittingLines #rotor #stator #lamination #ElectricMotor #EV
