Find the Right Vehicle Recycling Equipment for Your Business
Which Part of the ELV Recycling Industry Are You?
Different recyclers require different equipment. Whether you compact depolluted vehicle hulks, shred complete car bodies or operate an integrated metal recovery facility, ENERPAT offers the right solution for your business stage.
 
  • Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF)​​​​​​​
    After depollution and dismantling, vehicle hulks must be compacted for efficient transport and downstream processing.

    Recommended Equipment
  • Vehicle Dismantling Yard​​​​​​​
    Recover reusable parts first, then compress remaining vehicle shells into dense bales before shipping to shredding facilities.

    Recommended Equipment
    Vehicle BalerLogger Baler
  • Scrap Metal Recycling Facility​​​​​​​
    Process depolluted vehicle bodies together with mixed ferrous scrap to increase throughput and prepare materials for downstream recovery.
  • Integrated ELV Recycling Plant
    Operate a complete recycling system with shredding, liberation, magnetic separation and non-ferrous metal recovery for maximum recycling value.

Common Challenges Facing European Vehicle Recycling Companies
Across Europe, Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs), vehicle dismantlers, scrap metal recyclers and integrated ELV recycling plants are under increasing pressure to process more vehicles, reduce operating costs and recover higher-value materials. Whether you are compacting vehicle hulks, shredding ELVs or operating a complete recycling facility, improving efficiency throughout the recycling process is essential for maintaining profitability.
ENERPAT helps recyclers overcome these challenges with scalable solutions ranging from Vehicle Hulk Balers and Twin-Shaft Vehicle Shredders to Hammer Mills and Complete ELV Recycling Plants.​​​​​​​
Engineered for European recyclers. Built for ELV compliance. Designed to maximise your margins.
From car balers to full ELV processing plants, ENERPAT delivers proven equipment for ATFs, scrap yards and shredders — to cut costs, lift purity and turn ELVs into profit.

Choose the Right ELV Recycling Equipment
  • SCE5000 Vehicle Baler
    Designed for Australian auto recyclers and vehicle dismantling operations, the ENERPAT SCE5000 Vehicle Baler features a 5,000 mm compression chamber, making it ideal for processing passenger cars, SUVs and most light commercial vehicles. It efficiently compresses vehicle hulks into dense, uniform bales, helping reduce transport costs while improving yard handling and storage efficiency.
    With a cycle time of just 3–4 minutes, the SCE5000 produces compact 850 × 650 mm bales that are easy to stack, load and transport in standard shipping containers, making it an economical solution for businesses looking to maximise freight efficiency.
  • SCE6000 Vehicle Baler
    Built for recyclers handling longer and larger vehicles, the ENERPAT SCE6000 Vehicle Baler incorporates a 6,000 mm compression chamber, allowing it to process extended-wheelbase vehicles, utes, vans, larger SUVs and other long-bodied ELVs with ease. It is the preferred choice for high-volume recycling facilities requiring greater flexibility and throughput.
    Like the SCE5000, it delivers a fast 3–4 minute baling cycle and produces consistent 850 × 650 mm high-density bales that optimise container loading, reduce transport costs and simplify storage and downstream handling.
  • Hydraulic Twin-Shaft Vehicle Shredder (500 kW)
    Designed for primary size reduction, the ENERPAT Hydraulic Twin-Shaft Vehicle Shredder (500 kW) is the ideal solution for processing ELVs, vehicle hulks and bulky ferrous scrap before transport or further recycling. Its low-speed, high-torque hydraulic drive efficiently reduces material volume, making handling safer and more economical while preparing material for downstream processing.
    Perfect for auto recyclers and scrap metal recyclers, this machine can be used as a standalone shredding solution or integrated with an ENERPAT Vehicle Baler or complete recycling system to improve logistics efficiency and overall plant productivity.
  • Horizontal Hammer Mill Vehicle Shredder (560 kW)
    For recyclers looking to maximise material recovery, the ENERPAT Horizontal Hammer Mill Vehicle Shredder (560 kW) delivers high-speed secondary shredding that produces a more uniform and liberated material stream. The consistent output enhances the efficiency of magnetic separation, eddy current separation and advanced sensor sorting, enabling higher recovery rates of steel, aluminium, copper and other valuable metals.
    Designed for high-capacity scrap metal recyclers and complete ELV recycling plants, it is the preferred solution where maximum recovery, cleaner recycled metals and higher material value are the ultimate objectives.
  • Complete ELV Recycling Plant
    ENERPAT provides complete vehicle recycling plants integrating baling, shredding, magnetic separation, eddy current separation and advanced sorting technologies to maximise metal recovery and reduce landfill waste.

FAQ
  • Who needs ELV recycling equipment?
    Created with Sketch.
    形状 Created with Sketch.
    ELV recycling equipment is mainly used by authorised treatment facilities, auto dismantlers, scrap yards, shredding facilities, metal recyclers and integrated vehicle recycling plants. Different operators need different equipment depending on whether they focus on dismantling, vehicle hulk handling, shredding, metal recovery or complete ELV processing.
  • What equipment is used in end-of-life vehicle recycling?
    Created with Sketch.
    形状 Created with Sketch.
    Common equipment includes car body balers, vehicle shredders, hammer mills, conveyors, magnetic separators, non-ferrous metal separators and complete material recovery systems. These machines work together to reduce vehicle volume, liberate metals from mixed materials and separate valuable material streams for downstream recycling.
  • Why is depollution important before shredding a vehicle?
    Created with Sketch.
    形状 Created with Sketch.
    Depollution is important because end-of-life vehicles may contain fluids, batteries, tyres, airbags, fuel residues and other components that should be removed before shredding. Proper depollution improves safety, supports regulatory compliance and helps protect downstream equipment and material quality.
  • How do I choose the right vehicle recycling equipment?
    Created with Sketch.
    形状 Created with Sketch.
    The right equipment depends on your role in the recycling chain. ATFs and dismantlers may need depollution support and car body balers, scrap yards may focus on compaction and handling equipment, while shredding facilities and metal recyclers usually need shredders, hammer mills and separation systems. ENERPAT can help evaluate your material flow and recommend a suitable equipment configuration.
