Abstract
Automotive product recovery is a process in which End of Life Vehicles (ELV) are recovered from the end user to allow reuse, remanufacture or recycling. The goal is to reduce dependency on virgin materials whilst reducing disposal of automotive waste. While being actively implemented in automotive manufacturing countries such as United States, Germany, Japan, Korea and China, Malaysia has yet to develop its recovery framework. This paper reviews the existing automotive industry framework and a reverse supply chain framework for use in Malaysia were then proposed to further facilitate automotive product recovery in Malaysia.
