PartsXchange Partners with Eladene Systems to Bridge the Gap Between VRA Approved Recyclers and Bodyshops

PartsXchange, a leading tailor-made collision repair online platform for automotive parts procurement and management, is proud to announce a new strategic partnership with Eladene Systems. An innovative technology provider in the automotive recycling sector. This collaboration aims to streamline and strengthen the relationship between VRA (Vehicle Recycling Association) approved recyclers and bodyshops. This will ensure a more efficient and cost-effective process for sourcing quality recycled automotive parts.

PartsXchange Partners with Eladene Systems to Bridge the Gap Between VRA Approved Recyclers and Bodyshops pThe partnership is designed to simplify the way bodyshops access and purchase parts from trusted, certified recyclers. By leveraging Eladene’s cutting-edge technology and PartsXchange’s extensive network, this collaboration promises to enhance the parts procurement process: reducing lead times, increasing part availability and ultimately making bodyshops more profitable across the UK.

A Seamless Connection for Bodyshops and Recyclers

The alliance between PartsXchange and Eladene Systems creates a seamless digital bridge between VRA-approved recyclers and bodyshops. Recyclers have an easy-to-use platform to list their inventory, while bodyshops can access a wide range of high-quality and eco-friendly recycled parts with just a few clicks. This will significantly improve the speed and accuracy of parts sourcing, helping bodyshops reduce downtime and improve customer service.

Sustainability and Efficiency at the Forefront

By promoting the use of recycled parts, PartsXchange and Eladene are not only improving operational efficiencies but also supporting sustainability efforts within the automotive industry. The partnership aligns with the growing push towards a circular economy, where quality parts are recycled and reused to minimise waste and reduce environmental impact.

Calum Philips, Director of PartsXchange, said:

“Our collaboration with Dave Picking (owner of Eladene Systems) commenced 18 months ago, and from the outset, we shared a common vision. We both recognised the need to bridge the gap between bodyshops and recyclers. Our goal has always been to consolidate all automotive parts in a single, accessible platform. By partnering with Dave, whose forward-thinking approach within the recycling sector aligns perfectly with our vision for the bodyshop industry, we have successfully created a solution that serves both sides of the market. This partnership seamlessly unites our respective objectives by ensuring that all parts are brought together in one place, strengthening the connection between the two industries and fostering greater collaboration.

Eladene’s advanced technology will allow us to provide even more value to our customers by connecting them directly to certified recyclers’ live parts data. This partnership underscores our commitment to making the automotive parts supply chain more efficient, sustainable and cost-effective for businesses across the industry.”
