IARC returns to Antwerp in March 2025 with exciting new developments! 

The ELV Regulation’s scope is expanding to include commercial, heavy-duty vehicles, and motorcycles. The critical role of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in recycling will be highlighted at the conference.

Car, motorbike, truck, and bus manufacturers need to take an active role in preparing for the significant responsibilities and financial implications that new European regulations and policies on critical raw materials and decarbonization will bring. The ELV Regulation introduces new rules for vehicle design and end-of-life management, requiring lorries, buses, and motorcycles to be treated at authorized treatment facilities, and restricting the export of non-roadworthy vehicles.

IARC 2025 will be the perfect platform for industry leaders to collaborate, share insights, and stay ahead of these changes. With all key players of the vehicle circular economy in attendance, this is your chance to contribute to the debate on regulations and policies with global impact while there is still time!

IARC is the international platform for discussing the latest developments and challenges in circular economy and automotive recycling. We bring together up to 300 decision-makers from the automotive and recycling sector, especially car manufacturers, metal suppliers, plastic scrap traders, recyclers, shredder operators, policy-makers and many more.
