European Group of Automotive Recycling Associations (EGARA)

As a European Trade Association we, of course, work together with relevant European organisations. During the development of the EU-directive on End-of-Life Vehicles (ELVs), EGARA has provided input to the directive, both at the Commission level and at Parliament level, as well as having discussions and meetings with other European Trade Associations in the Automotive sector, e.g. car-producers, producers of components and parts, recycling industries etc. EGARA was present at the meetings of the European Commission's Recycling Forum, as well as playing an active role in the development of the ISO-standard for recyclability and recoverability of automotive vehicles, ISO-22628. Therefore EGARA is the only European association truly representing Automotive Recyclers.
