De dagen dat een afgedankte auto op de schroothoop belandde, zijn steeds minder talrijk. Bij de Belgische autorecycling wordt al 98% van het gewicht van een afgedankte auto teruggewonnen, maar de volgende uitdaging is nog ambitieuzer: complete onderdelen in gebruik houden in plaats van alles tot grondstoffen te verwerken.<\/p>\n

Het West-Vlaamse autodemontagebedrijf Autohandel Didier, in 1993 opgericht door Didier Vanwijnsberghe, illustreert hoe deze sector steeds meer ge\u00efndustrialiseerd raakt. Het familiebedrijf dat al Het bedrijf, dat al jarenlang ongevalsauto\u2019s een tweede leven geeft, wil zijn rol in de circulaire economie verder uitbreiden.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tweedehands auto-onderdelen<\/h4>\n

Vanwijnsberghe is van plan zijn Belgische vestiging uit te breiden \u2013 tDe nieuwe vestiging zal uiteindelijk plaats bieden aan zestig mensen. Het bedrijf wil zich voorbereiden op verdere groei van zijn Franse vestiging in Cambrai, die in 2022 werd overgenomen en waar momenteel tien mensen werken, en investeren in geautomatiseerde opslag en digitalisering.<\/span><\/p>\n

Het familiebedrijf heeft momenteel meer dan 200.000 gebruikte auto-onderdelen op voorraad, vari\u00ebrend van bumpers en spiegels tot motoren, elektronica en accu\u2019s voor elektrische auto\u2019s. Elk onderdeel wordt ge\u00efdentificeerd aan de hand van het OEM-nummer, gefotografeerd en online aangeboden aan klanten tot ver buiten Belgi\u00eb.<\/p>\n

\"Choosing a second-hand part results in an average CO2 saving of 80% compared to the production of a new part,\" explains Vanwijnsberghe. <\/span>Door een nog goed functionerende bumper, omvormer, motor, koplamp of versnellingsbak te hergebruiken, blijft veel meer van de energie en economische waarde die in het onderdeel zit behouden dan wanneer het wordt verpulverd en het staal, aluminium en kunststof worden teruggewonnen.<\/p>\n

\"<\/span>While many companies have to adapt their operations to evolve toward a circular economy, circularity has been our core business for years,\" explains Vanwijsberghe.<\/span><\/p>\n

Industri\u00eble ontmanteling<\/h4>\n

Autohandel Didier is meer dan alleen de moderne variant van de traditionele autosloperij; het is een voorbeeld van de richting waarin de Belgische autorecycling zich ontwikkelt: weg van de traditionele autosloperij en op weg naar ge\u00efndustrialiseerde demontage, digitale inventarisatie en het hergebruik van complete onderdelen.<\/p>\n

Vanwijnsberghe is een belangrijke Belgische speler op het gebied van autodemontage en de markt voor gebruikte onderdelen. Zijn kracht ligt echter veel verder stroomopwaarts in de circulaire keten: het maximale uit een beschadigd voertuig halen voordat de rest in de shredder belandt.<\/p>\n

Autohandel Didier had in 2025 ongeveer 36,8 FTE in dienst, een brutomarge van 5,2 miljoen euro en een nettowinst van 1,57 miljoen euro.<\/p>\n

Afgedankte voertuigen en accu\u2019s<\/h4>\n

Autohandel Didier is echter niet de enige speler op de Belgische markt. Er zijn meer dan 100 erkende verwerkingsbedrijven en versnippers die samenwerken met Febelauto, de Belgische beheersinstantie voor autowrakken en industri\u00eble batterijen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tot de meest vergelijkbare bedrijven behoren De Jonghe Recuparts in Deurne, dat naar eigen zeggen meer dan 16.000 geteste onderdelen in een magazijn van drie verdiepingen heeft; Auto Recyclage Nols in Luik, dat alle merken demonteert en ook erkend is voor hybride en elektrische voertuigen; en Auto Demontage Overpelt, dat zich met name specialiseert in Ford en Opel en alles verkoopt, van motoren tot carrosseriepanelen en elektronica.<\/p>\n

Belgium among Europe's best performers<\/h4>\n

Belgium is genuinely among Europe's best performers in vehicle recycling. Febelauto says that in 2025 Belgium achieved 98% useful recovery by vehicle weight. More strikingly, almost 25% was classified as parts reuse, and around 69% as recycling, giving roughly 94% reuse + material recycling before the remaining recovery streams are counted. In 2000, total recovery was only around 75%.<\/p>\n

Belgi\u00eb presteert ook aanzienlijk beter dan zijn buurlanden op het gebied van daadwerkelijk hergebruik en materiaalrecycling, terwijl Nederland Belgi\u00eb licht overtrof wanneer energieterugwinning en andere nuttige toepassingen worden meegerekend. De meest recente nationale cijfers wijzen in dezelfde richting. Nederland bereikte in 2025 een totale nuttige terugwinning van 98,81 TP3T, terwijl Duitsland in 2023 slechts op 93,31 TP3T uitkwam.<\/p>\n

Gebrekkige traceerbaarheid<\/h4>\n

But Belgium has an important Achilles' heel: poor traceability. The country is very good at recycling the cars it receives, but less good at knowing where every old car eventually ends up, partly because license plates traditionally follow the owner rather than the vehicle, and because authorized and unauthorized operators coexist in the chain.\u00a0So, Belgium recycles almost everything from a scrapped car \u2014 if the car reaches the official recycling system.<\/p>\n

The EU estimates that around 3.5 million vehicles \u2013 roughly one-third of those leaving Europe's roads \u2013 effectively 'go missing' every year, through undocumented export, illegal dismantling or other channels.<\/p>\n

Dit betekent dat bedrijven, zoals Autohandel Didier, zich plotseling in een strategisch belangrijke positie bevinden: de EU wil dat er meer onderdelen worden gedemonteerd, gedocumenteerd, getest en doorverkocht, in plaats van dat voertuigen worden gesloopt of in hun geheel in versnippers worden gegooid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
