In the automotive sector, there is a growing need for transparency and traceability in the lifecycle of parts, especially those that are reused, refurbished, or recycled. Many automotive components go through complex processes of recycling and treatment, and without reliable tracking, it can be difficult for businesses to verify the quality and origin of these second-hand parts. Adalmo and DRA Balears face challenges in managing the lifecycle of automotive parts while ensuring compliance with sustainability standards and meeting consumer demand for transparency regarding the sourcing and handling of second-hand products.

CarTrack, implemented by Adalmo and DRA Balears, provides a comprehensive blockchain-based Digital Product Passport that enables the detailed tracking of automotive parts throughout their recycling and treatment processes. Adalmo utilizes CarTrack to document each step of the recycling process, including the collection, processing, and environmental impact of automotive components. Meanwhile, DRA Balears leverages this data to sell second-hand automotive products with full transparency, assuring customers of the quality and provenance of each part. By offering a secure, immutable record of each part’s lifecycle, CarTrack enhances consumer trust, supports regulatory compliance, and promotes sustainable practices in the automotive industry.
