Marelli, a global automotive technology supplier, has been recognised for its sustainable efforts with a 2025 Enlighten Award in the 'Sustainable Process' category. The award, presented on 16th September in Detroit, Michigan, honours the company’s Adhesive Wastewater Recovery Solution.

This new process, which was developed in Marelli's Kyushu, Japan plant and launched in late 2024, significantly improves water efficiency. It works by treating wastewater – classified as industrial waste – generated from cleaning machinery used in the manufacturing of vehicle interiors. The process separates, condenses and solidifies the adhesive residue, allowing the remaining water to be reused in other manufacturing operations.

This innovative solution recovers approximately 85 percent of the wastewater, eliminating the need for additional disposal steps and cutting water usage at the Kyushu plant by an estimated 8,160 kilograms per year.

The Enlighten Award, presented by the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) and Altair, celebrates advancements that reduce carbon footprint, mitigate water and energy consumption and promote material reuse.

Tsukasa Fujii, President of Marelli’s Interiors business, said, “We’re honoured to win the Altair Enlighten Award for our Adhesive Wastewater Recovery Solution. This innovation embodies the Marelli culture of aiming to use resources efficiently, drawing also from Japanese know-how, which in particular developed this solution. This was also made possible by the strong leadership of our factory managers, based on our ‘Plant First’ approach. We will continue to partner with automotive OEMs to contribute to a sustainable society, and we believe this technology will set new industry standards.”
