That’s great, but this new strategy allows the recycled material to be used in the injection molding process for the first time. That reduces the use of new plastic inby up to 30 percent, shrinking their carbon footprint by around 25 percent. It also means that more old nets and ropes are collected, preventing them from being discarded in the sea.
BMW says that it will use this new, greener plastic in parts that are visible on the Neue Klasse vehicles, as well as those that aren’t starting in 2025. Part of the automaker’s wider environmental goals, it hopes to increase its use of recycled materials in thermoplastics from 20 percent to 40 percent by 2030.
