Stellantis applies circular economy principles throughout the full vehicle lifecycle, from design to end-of-life.
Since 2022, the SUSTAINera label highlights our circular economy initiatives worldwide, driven by a dedicated business unit which manages efficient material use, waste reduction, and resource optimization through the 4R strategy: Reman (remanufacturing), Repair, Reuse, and Recycle.
This new consumption model extends product lifespan and reintegrates recycled materials into manufacturing, creating lasting value for all stakeholders while respecting planetary boundaries.
SUSTAINera’s Material Flow Management system furthers these efforts by reducing waste and improving resource efficiency, closing material loops through recycling, and contributing to the replacement of virgin materials in new vehicles and parts.
Committed to a Circular Economy
We offer a sustainable aftersales alternative
Our SUSTAINera label provides customers – including vehicle owners and repair professionals – with a comprehensive range of sustainable and affordable aftersales products and services within the Stellantis Parts & Services offer. This range includes remanufactured, repaired, reused and recycled parts and products, with our portfolio expanding each year to offer even broader coverage.
These initiatives help reduce waste, conserve resources, and achieve up to 80% savings in raw materials and up to 50% in non-emitted CO2 – compared to equivalent new parts(1) – without compromising quality.
A repair service is also dedicated to the high voltage batteries of electric vehicles and was expanded in 2025 to a global network of 33 e-repair centers.

We are expanding circular economy solutions
Stellantis is expanding its Circular Economy business worldwide. In November 2023, the first SUSTAINera Circular Economy Hub opened in Mirafiori, Turin, Italy, focusing on remanufacturing engines, gearboxes, EV batteries, and vehicle reconditioning and dismantling to promote sustainable reuse of parts and materials.
In 2023, Stellantis and Galloo launched SUSTAINera VALORAUTO SAS in Europe to provide an online solution for recycling end-of-life vehicles (ELV). SUSTAINera VALORAUTO and its partners help recover and recycle ELV components, strengthening the recycling chain and supporting Stellantis’ supply of critical materials.
In 2025, Stellantis also opened South America’s first Vehicle Dismantling Center in Brazil, promoting circular economy practices through vehicle dismantling with an annual capacity of 8,000 units and recovering automotive parts for reuse or recycling.

We implement a sustainable battery supply chain ecosystem
High-voltage batteries are central to our electrification strategy. From production to recycling, Stellantis is developing a global circular economy model for high-voltage batteries used in hybrid and electric vehicles.
Batteries can be remanufactured in-house or with supplier partners, repaired at dedicated e-repair centers, reused in second-life applications, or – as a very last option – recycled through a network of partners.
