SYNETIQ secures new recycling standard
The Vehicle Recycler’s Association has awarded SYNETIQ with the Stage 1 UK Standard for Reclaimed Parts from end-of-life vehicles.
This new industry standard covers the removal, processing, and traceability of parts from damaged vehicles, ensuring they are safe for reuse. SYNETIQ supplies these ‘green parts’ to major fleets, bodyshops, garages and private customers across the UK.
SYNETIQ sells original equipment non-safety related parts, such as collision panels, engines and gearboxes, through its parts procurement platform MyGreenFleet. Each part is graded from A to C, with any minor damage clearly highlighted. This quality control process is well established and means customers know exactly what to expect when ordering, with the item condition reflected in the price. The cashable saving from RRP can be as much as 75% when compared to new OE parts.
Jason Cross, client relationship director, said: “We’re right behind this new VRA standard – it is a very positive step. We see it as being perfectly aligned with our vision: to lead the way in creating a vehicle recycling industry we can all be proud of. New, robust industry standards create a benchmark and inspire trust in the use of green OE parts. This can only help us and the insurance and fleet clients we serve.”
