As part of this commitment to sustainable mobility, Tata Motors has launched its second ‘Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility’ (RVSF) in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Named ‘ReWiRe - Recycle with Respect’, the facility was inaugurated by Tukuni Sahu, Minister for Water Resources, Commerce & Transport, Government of Odisha.
The facility uses environmentally friendly processes and can disassemble 10,000 end-of-life vehicles safely and sustainably each year. The RVSF is developed and operated by Tata Motors’ partner Empreo Premium to scrap end-of-life passenger and commercial vehicles of all brands. This launch follows the success of the first facility in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and marks another significant milestone for the company's sustainable initiatives.
Sahu said, “With the inauguration of this new scrappage facility, we take a crucial step towards reducing the environmental impact of our transportation sector. This facility not only provides a convenient and safe way to dispose of old vehicles but also promotes the adoption of cleaner and more efficient modes of transportation. We applaud the commitment of Tata Motors and all parties involved in bringing this project to fruition while urging our citizens to unite with us in our pursuit of a cleaner and greener future.”
Rajesh Kaul, Business Head, Trucks, Tata Motors, added, “As we inaugurate our latest RVSF in Odisha, we embark on a transformative journey towards responsible end-of-life vehicle scrapping in the State. By implementing globally benchmarked recycling processes that hosts modern equipment for safe and sustainable vehicle scrapping, we aim to extract the utmost value from scrap materials and minimise waste for a brighter future. We extend our appreciation to the extraordinary efforts of the Government of Odisha for making this project a reality. These decentralised facilities will benefit our customers, foster economic growth, generate employment opportunities and fulfil the need of eco-friendly vehicle scrapping.”
