BUY 4 & WASTE 3:- Sustainability has become a buzzword in recent times, but does it live up to its promise? Often, companies use it as a facade to gain some mileage. Case in point: I recently had to replace a torn mud flap on my car, and the Toyota dealer told me that I had to buy a set of four, as they do not sell them individually. This raises a pertinent question - what should I do with the remaining three mud flaps? Given that mud flaps are made of plastic or synthetic rubber, which harms the environment significantly, this approach seems to prioritize profit over environmental concerns. It's not just Toyota - many others in the automotive industry adopt such practices. How can we bring about a change in this approach? #sustainability #environment #automotiveindustry

When you think of carbon black in transportation, people usually think of tires. And for good reason, with approximately 70% of the world's carbon black being used in tire production. But, did you know that carbon black makes up a variety of automotive components? From the belts, seals and hoses under the hood, the coloring in the exterior paint, to the plastics used on interior parts, carbon black is a key element of our everyday lives, starting with the vehicles we drive.

Tire wear is a significant source of plastic microplastic pollution. It is estimated that globally, each person is responsible for about 1 kg of plastic microbeads produced when tires are worn out - with the assumption that developed countries see an even higher figure. However, there are many ways to reduce tire wear that each of us can practice with little effort. We are talking, for example, about regularly monitoring tire pressure and maintaining the correct parameters, avoiding sudden braking or contributing to the lowest possible load on the vehicle. These behaviors have the effect of reducing friction between tires and the surface, so tires wear much more slowly. This case shows that with even the smallest effort we can contribute to reducing the amount of pollution produced on a daily basis. #KnaufIndustries #KnaufAutomotive #automotive #industry

November 15th is America Recycles Day. While the focus might be on everyday items like plastic bottles/bags and soda cans, the automotive aftermarket is a real player in this movement. Fixing cars and trucks instead of scrapping and buying new ones eliminates millions of tons of material from landfills. We also sell many remanufactured products that reuse most components, and our track record on battery recycling is a significant success story. Motor vehicles get a bad rap for their contribution to pollution, but without a robust and skilled independent aftermarket, the problem would be much worse. #wefixthem #automotiveaftermarket
