Dear Sir/Madam,
For over 20 years we have been meeting at trainings, seminars and conferences organized by
FORS. This time we cordially invite you to the 4th International Recycling of vehicles in the
country and abroad Conference, which will be held on September 19, 2019 in the Double Tree
Hotel by Hilton in Kraków.
As in previous years, we will host many industry representatives and speakers from Poland
and abroad. This year's conference, under the slogan “Practice and experience” (orig. Praktyka i
doświadczenie), will be enhanced with the possibility to visit 3 dismantling facilities that have been
operating for years in southern Poland: in Bochnia, Przeworsk and Rzeszów. Moreover, there will
be a unique opportunity to visit a modern catalytic converter processing plant in Trzebinia.
During the Conference, in a group of befriended organizations from other countries, we will
propose to establish September 18 as the “International Car Recycling Day". This is a symbolic
date for the industry as Directive 2000/53/EC became effective on this very date. This Directive
setting the basic vehicle recycling targets is now applied in all European countries and in many
other countries it is the basis for the implementation of national regulations. It became the
“industry’s Constitution” in a way. The car recycling day on September 18 would take place on the
European Mobility Week, which ends on September 22 with the globally celebrated “No Car Day”.
That is why the idea was born that car recyclers should be able to celebrate during this period. It
will also be an excellent opportunity to promote the proper handling of end-of-life vehicles in the
media. In addition, there are plans to establish an International Car Recycling Committee, which
will include representatives from a number of countries.
This year, both in Poland and in many other countries, is quite a challenge for the industry:
car production is falling, scrap metal prices are falling, whereas the grey economy and bureaucracy
are increasing. That is why all hardworking people deserve a moment of relaxation combined with
the opportunity to gain new contacts and practical experience. And this is the spirit which will
dominate the the 4th International “Recycling of vehicles in the country and abroad” Conferenc. We
are convinced that apart from professional experience, both the Conference itself and the beautiful
city of Kraków will provide a charge of positive energy.
During the Conference it will be possible to get acquainted with the offer of exhibitors,
invited to present services and devices dedicated for disassembly facilities.
Framework programme of the Conference:
September 18, 2019 - a tour of disassembly facilities in Bochnia, Przeworsk, Rzeszów - field

Dismantling station’s owners invite you to visit the stations!.
Car dismantling stations are professional companies which focus on intensive development and search for new investment opportunities. Car dismantling stations of XXI century are beautiful buildings, good equipment and, what’s the most important, qualified employees.
During the Conference, there is a possibility to vistit three car dismantling stations: Cadilak Bochnia, Impresja Przeworsk and Auto Złom Rudna Mała.
In the abovementioned stations, care for the natural environment and financial condition results in high recovery of materials as well as acquisition of large amount of parts for second use.
Dynamic development of recycle industry and market needs led to the development of the stations, which now can deal with: car trade, professional regeneration of car parts, car service or diagnostic stations. You will be able to see all this changes during the study tour at the stations.
Moreover, as the job is not everything, at the end of the study tour day, we would like to invite you to visit the Museum of Military War Technic, which is located at one of the stations. At the Museum, you can admire exhibits, as well as weapon demonstration, try an armored car ride, watch the drift show, take part in drift taxi, as well as try the military food and lots more.
All this was born from passion to the automotive. You can participate in our passion during the visit at our stations.
