Reverse Logistics Problems of Worn Tires
Ślusarczyk Beata and Kot Sebastian
Abstract—
Rapid development of the automotive market,
apart from indisputable advantages, brings about a range of
problems. One of them is an increase in the amount of worn
tires which must be disposed of since they pose a significant
threat to the natural environment. Therefore, in every country,
there ought to operate an efficient system of reverse logistics
which will allow to collect all worn tires and subject them to
appropriate recovery operations. However, in practice, it turns
out that the efficiency of such actions is far from ideal and the
system itself copes with many problems. The present study is to
signal these problems and attempt to propose their solutions.
