Ford’s Bumper Recycling Scheme Shows Results

Ford dealerships in the United Kingdom have started a initiative to recycle old and damaged bumpers from their cars and so far this recycling scheme has already been very successful.

Ford dealers were able to keep over twenty three thousand accident damaged bumpers from entering landfills in last year alone. This is equal to about seventy tonnes of landfill waste diverted by this recycling scheme. The bumpers are going to be recycled into new, usable bumpers as well as other plastic parts and goods.

Ford has called their UK recycling scheme a fantastic success and say it shows that Ford is focused upon environmental concerns. Ford dealerships are also saving cash with the scheme as now the Ford company will remove bumpers from their dealers free of charge.
