End-of-life vehicles (ELVs) are a significant environmental issue that requires immediate attention. Disposing of these vehicles can lead to air, water, and soil pollution, which can have severe environmental and health consequences. ELVs contain various hazardous materials, including batteries, airbags, and fluids such as motor oil, brake fluid, and transmission fluid, which can cause soil and water contamination if not disposed of properly.

Are you aware that your old car is not just a burden on your pocket but also on the environment? It might surprise you, but end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) can cause significant damage to our planet if not scrapped in a scientific and environment-friendly manner. Unfortunately, India, one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, has seen an increase in vehicles on the road, leading to a surge in ELVs. In this blog, we will talk about the importance of car scrapping in India, the environmental impact of ELVs, the benefits of car scrapping, and the role of MSTI's state-of-the-art facility in ensuring sustainable car scrapping.

India, one of the fastest-growing automobile markets in the world, has seen a significant increase in the number of vehicles on its roads over the past few decades. However, with the rise in vehicle ownership, there has also been a corresponding increase in old and unusable vehicles that are no longer roadworthy and need to be scrapped. Car scrapping is a complex process involving the safe and environmentally responsible disposal of vehicles, which often poses challenges in India for various reasons, such as lack of proper infrastructure, inadequate regulations, and limited awareness about environmentally friendly scrapping practices.
