Our trucks pick up up to 24 vehicles every day, efficiently and environmentally friendly.
Our largest number of vehicles that we purchase come from:
-Recycling premiums “VHUs” (véhicule hors usage)
-Seizure
-The insurance
-The government
-Companies
-Private individuals
Within the frame of the present environmental legislation, our company applies production methods contributing to vehicle depollution/recycling in an optimal and environment-friendly way. The vehicle will be depolluted by means of an installation specially developed to depollute end-of-life vehicles as efficiently as possible.
The wastes that are removed from the vehicle are:
-The battery
-The tires
-The catalyst
-The oils (engine oil, gearbox oil, brake oil,...)
-The fluids (coolant, windshield washer fluid,...)
-The fuel (gasoline, diesel, LPG)
-The air conditioning gas
-Etc.
We distinguish 3 categories of vehicles:
-Vehicles that are destroyed directly after depollution
-Vehicles that are stored in our fleet after depollution for the sale of parts
-Vehicles that are immediately dismantled for export after depollution
The rest of the car wreck will be compacted in our own mobile shredder. In this way, the trucks can transport larger quantities of wrecks in one ride, which is better for the environment and road traffic.
The chassis number will be deleted from the Belgium vehicle repertory. We will also destroy the vehicle's registration documents.
The pressed wrecks are brought to Group Galloo for shredding. Here, metals are separated and processed into raw materials or semi-finished products for new products.
