The 8th event in American Business Conferences global LCA for automotive series.
The North American industry is undergoing a tectonic shift. No longer is sustainability a siloed agenda. It’s now being viewed through the prism of profitability and long-term business viability.
OEMs and suppliers are increasingly realising that, in the current regulatory environment, linear models of production and consumption are both ecologically and economically untenable. And that, circularity, in the automotive industry, is no longer a mere buzzword but an essential strategy for future-proofing operations.
The entire lifecycle of a vehicle, from the sourcing of raw materials to the repurposing of components, plays a pivotal role in determining its environmental footprint. Ensuring a closed-loop system where components are not merely discarded, but are reused, repurposed, or recycled is pivotal to reducing waste and conserving valuable resources. However, achieving this seamless cycle comes with significant challenges: supply chain complexities, technological advancements required for efficient disassembly, and the economic implications of transitioning from traditional to circular processes. Some might want to throw limitless quantities of money at the problem, but how do you do this in a way that ensures your company remains profitable?
