In order to facilitate and encourage the recycling of plastic parts, DAF Trucks has created recycling guides for the new LF and CF series, as well as the XF105 series, which was voted 'International Truck of the Year 2007'. These recycling guides can be found at www.daf.com.
In terms of weight, over 80 per cent of a modern DAF truck can be re-used; of the metals used that is over 90 per cent. Of the plastic parts used, around 80 per cent are suitable for recycling. In order to re-use all of these parts, it is necessary to identify what type of material each one is made from, which is why DAF marks all plastic truck parts with a code. Dealers and vehicle breakers can use this code to sort plastic waste for re-use.
