Hindustan Recycling Hub: Creating A Difference, From Deregistration To Dismantling

India’s enhancing infrastructure, construction, automotive, and other sectors are contributing to the rising demand for raw materials like metals. While on the one hand self-sufficiency is being promulgated, on the other, significant metal imports indicate consumption that far exceeds domestic production. A push towards a circular approach to resource management is further being promoted by such sectors to minimize import dependance. This is where recycling scrap metals becomes key. With the potential to save tonnes of carbon emissions, thousands of liters of water, and more, recycling is the answer to India’s ambitious carbon neutrality and self-reliance aspirations.

Within this landscape, Hindustan Recycling Hub (HRH), South India’s first registered vehicle scrapping facility (RVSF) established under VVMP of MoRTH has emerged as a beacon of change. With a 70 per cent market share among authorised RVSFs across the five major southern states, Hindustan Recycling Hub is a trusted, certified, and policy-aligned business, dedicated to facilitating and developing a transparent, efficient, and sustainable ELV scrapping ecosystem.

Responsibly Sustainable Operations
Pioneers in the ELV scraping landscape, Hindustan Recycling Hub is bringing a revolution, addressing industry gaps like lacking public knowledge, absence of integrated tech-enabled facilities, non-compliant dismantling and unsafe activities, and more. Emphasis on policy implementation, end-to-end regulatory compliance, user education, and circular economy alignment are the key pillars behind the company’s leadership.

Operating from a massive 1 lakh sq. ft facility in Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, the firm leverages the region’s robust automotive aftermarket and scrap trade markets. The facility fitted with globally benchmarked de-pollution, material re-covery, and waste management systems facilitates zero discharge practices and full compliance with ELV guidelines. Its ingenious segregated dismantling zones help prevent cross-contamination, while use of leak-proof containers and oil-ab-sorbent pads simplifies utilization of lubricants and coolants. These eco-friendly practices, along with continuous training and emphasis on SOP adherence in vehicle dismantling processes enables the firm to assure safety and sustain-ability.
