Recycling | Finland<br />
In front of the Finnish Parliament, <strong>Stena</strong> demonstrated its mobile units used to dismantle and crush scrapped cars.<br />
Ferrous and Non-Ferrous<br />
Metals<br />
In spring 2005 <strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i signed a<br />
cooperation agreement with the Finnish<br />
association of auto makers on the recycling<br />
of scrapped cars in accordance with<br />
the EU’s ELV directive (End-of-Life<br />
Vehicles). The agreement runs through<br />
2014 and provides good business opportunities<br />
in this future-oriented area.<br />
Several producer responsibility agreements<br />
The Finnish ELV agreement does not require<br />
car buyers to pay any environmental<br />
fees when they purchase a new vehicle.<br />
When the vehicle has reached the end of<br />
its life, it can be scrapped and recycled at<br />
an environmentally and quality certified<br />
<strong>Stena</strong> facility, also at no cost to the consumer.<br />
<strong>Stena</strong> handles all administration,<br />
making it is easy and safe for consumers.<br />
An agreement was also signed with the<br />
material company responsible for tire recycling,<br />
to complement ELV recycling.<br />
Both these agreements, combined with the<br />
agreement with the material company for<br />
metal packaging that <strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i had<br />
previously signed, give it a strong market<br />
position.<br />
In spring 2005 <strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i established<br />
a cooperation with Lassila & Tikanoja,<br />
Finland’s leading environmental services<br />
company with a well-established, nationwide<br />
branch network. The cooperation increases<br />
proximity to customers and makes<br />
it possible to improve service and offer<br />
customers total waste management solutions.<br />
Higher market shares<br />
Ferrous and non-ferrous scrap prices were<br />
volatile during the fiscal year. Still, <strong>Stena</strong><br />
<strong>Metall</strong>i raised its market shares and reported<br />
satisfactory income. A customer-focused<br />
<strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i Oy<br />
During the fiscal year <strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i yhtymä<br />
Oy and <strong>Stena</strong> EK Oy merged to form<br />
<strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i Oy. <strong>Stena</strong> <strong>Metall</strong>i processes<br />
ferrous and non-ferrous scrap at 11<br />
branches. A fragmentation facility is<br />
located in Pori. Electronics recycling is<br />
handled by the new company <strong>Stena</strong><br />
Technoworld Oy.<br />
