How Do You Dispose Of Airbags?
Airbags contain components that require careful handling due to the presence of hazardous materials such as propellants and inflators. Proper airbag disposal is essential to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and environmental responsibility. At Collect and Recycle, we provide a specialised airbag disposal service, offering a safe, efficient solution for the disposal of airbag modules.
When it comes to undeployed airbags, these contain active propellant charges, classifying them as hazardous waste. Disposal must be carried out at a licensed facility equipped to handle explosive components safely.
For deployed airbags, although the propellant has been discharged, components like metal, fabric, and electronics are still recovered through advanced airbag disposal processes.
