We all know what happens to plastic once it is disposed and thrown to a landfill site and how long it takes for it to biodegrade, well, one major source of greenhouse gasses (GHG´s) and landfill plastic waste is in the automotive service industry.
Disposable Seat, Steering Wheel, Levers and floor mat covers that repair shops and car dealers use to protect car interiors and exteriors from scratches and stains of grease, oil, fluids in general while they are being serviced is an important source of plastic waste.
Studies say that over 600,000 tons of GHG's are emitted globally into the air every year, just while these disposables are being produced and transported (the more orders, the more deliveries and transportation involved).
Every set of car interior disposables equals 9 plastic shopping bags
. Just in North America, more than 80,000 tons (300,000 worldwide) of disposable seat, Steering Wheel, levers and floor mat covers end up in landfills annually after being used just once!, In addition, approximately 150,000 tons (600,000 worldwide) of greenhouse gases are emitted into the air from factories around the world producing and transporting these ítems every year.
