Na voltooiing zal de faciliteit de huidige recyclingcapaciteit van de locatie aanzienlijk uitbreiden en werk bieden aan honderden mensen, waardoor het een van BMW's grootste investeringen in de circulaire economie wordt.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-183513\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/P90492233_lowRes_two-new-technologies.jpg?resize=640%2C418&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/P90492233_lowRes_two-new-technologies.jpg?resize=1024%2C668&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/P90492233_lowRes_two-new-technologies.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/P90492233_lowRes_two-new-technologies.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Het nieuwe centrum gaat veel verder dan de traditionele recycling van voertuigen. Het is ontworpen als een ge\u00efntegreerde hub die demontage, terugwinning van materialen, verwerking op industri\u00eble schaal en onderzoek en ontwikkeling in \u00e9\u00e9n enkele lus combineert.<\/p>\n<p>BMW verwacht dat de faciliteit in de beginfase tienduizenden voertuigen per jaar zal verwerken, met een duidelijk pad om de volumes op te schalen naarmate het elektrische wagenpark groeit en er meer hoogwaardige materialen in de recyclingstroom terechtkomen.<\/p>\n<h4>Hoogwaardige secundaire grondstoffen<\/h4>\n<p>In de kern zal het centrum zich richten op het terugwinnen van hoogwaardige secundaire grondstoffen zoals staal, aluminium, koper en kunststoffen, evenals kritieke batterijmaterialen zoals kobalt, nikkel en lithium.<\/p>\n<p>Door geavanceerde demontage, versnippering en AI-ondersteunde sortering te industrialiseren, wil BMW een aanzienlijk hogere zuiverheid van teruggewonnen materialen bereiken. Dit is cruciaal, want alleen secundaire materialen van hoge kwaliteit kunnen op grote schaal opnieuw in de autoproductie worden ingezet.<\/p>\n<p>Het doel is duidelijk: de afhankelijkheid van volatiele wereldwijde toeleveringsketens verminderen en tegelijkertijd de CO\u2082-voetafdruk van de auto's gedurende hun hele levenscyclus verlagen. Volgens BMW kan het gebruik van secundair aluminium of staal de uitstoot tot 70% verminderen in vergelijking met primaire productie, wat het belang onderstreept van circulaire materiaalstromen voor het behalen van de aangescherpte Europese klimaatdoelstellingen.<\/p>\n<p>Dit initiatief past precies in BMW's bredere iFactory strategie, die is opgebouwd rond de principes van \u201clean, green en digital\u201d. Terwijl er veel aandacht is besteed aan flexibele productielijnen en digitalisering, versterkt het circulariteitscentrum een minder zichtbare maar even belangrijke dimensie: materiaalbeheersing.<\/p>\n<p>Door te standaardiseren en de toegang tot gerecyclede grondstoffen veilig te stellen, verbetert BMW zijn vermogen om de productie tussen fabrieken te verplaatsen en aan te passen aan de marktvraag, een belangrijke belofte van zijn productiemodel.<\/p>\n<p>In de praktijk betekent dit dat materialen die in Wackersdorf worden verwerkt, naar meerdere fabrieken in BMW's wereldwijde netwerk kunnen gaan, wat een consistente kwaliteit ondersteunt en de blootstelling aan regionale onderbrekingen in de aanvoer vermindert. Circulariteit wordt zo niet alleen een duurzaamheidsinstrument, maar ook een hefboom voor industri\u00eble flexibiliteit en kostenstabiliteit.<\/p>\n<h4>BMW's niveau van integratie<\/h4>\n<p>Vergeleken met concurrenten valt de aanpak van BMW op door de mate van integratie. Bedrijven als Tesla, Volkswagen Group en Mercedes-Benz Group investeren weliswaar fors in het recyclen van batterijen, maar hun inspanningen zijn vaak gericht op specifieke onderdelen of proefprojecten.<\/p>\n<p>BMW daarentegen integreert circulariteit in zijn algehele productiesysteem en koppelt de verwerking aan het einde van de levensduur direct aan het toekomstige ontwerp en de productie van voertuigen.<\/p>\n<p>Deze stap vormt ook een interessant contrast met het gevestigde Belgische recyclage-ecosysteem. Via organisaties zoals Febelauto heeft Belgi\u00eb een van de meest effici\u00ebnte systemen voor autowrakken in Europa opgebouwd, met terugwinningspercentages van meer dan 97%.<\/p>\n<p>Dit model is echter in de eerste plaats ontworpen om naleving te garanderen en de logistiek in de hele industrie te optimaliseren, en niet zozeer om gesloten materiaalstromen te cre\u00ebren voor individuele fabrikanten.<\/p>\n<p>BMW's nieuwe centrum weerspiegelt een andere ambitie: waarde halen uit gerecycleerde materialen en ze opnieuw integreren in de eigen toeleveringsketen. In die zin beweegt de Duitse groep zich stroomopwaarts in een gebied dat traditioneel wordt beheerd door collectieve systemen zoals Febelauto. De twee benaderingen sluiten elkaar niet uit, maar ze wijzen op een verschuiving in de rol van autoconstructeurs binnen de circulaire economie.<\/p>\n<p>Naarmate de Europese regelgeving evolueert, met een toenemende druk voor gerecycleerde inhoud en traceerbaarheid, zullen waarschijnlijk meer fabrikanten deze weg volgen. Voor landen als Belgi\u00eb zou dit een geleidelijke herschikking kunnen betekenen tussen nationale co\u00f6rdinatieplatforms en OEM-gestuurde circulaire kringlopen.<\/p>\n<p>Met het Wackersdorf project positioneert BMW zichzelf in de voorhoede van deze overgang. Recycling wordt niet langer gezien als een verplichting aan het einde van de levensduur, maar als een strategische troef - een troef die de leveringszekerheid ondersteunt, de uitstoot vermindert en uiteindelijk de flexibiliteit van het wereldwijde productienetwerk versterkt.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The BMW Group is taking a decisive next step in its industrial transformation by announcing a new \u201cCompetence Centre Circularity\u201d at its Wackersdorf site in Germany.
