The shredding of decommissioned vehicles (also known as [[End-of-Life Vehicles]] or [[ELV]]s) produces [[Automotive Shredder Residue]] ([[ASR]]), a mixture of [[Ferrous Metal|ferrous metal]], [[Non-Ferrous Metal|non-ferrous metal]], [[glass]], fibre (including foam and fabric), rubber, [[plastic]]s and dirt<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_shredder_residue</ref>. Following the removal of the metal this material is often also called [[Frag Waste]] (due the way the material is fragmented into smaller pieces in the shredding process) and [[Fluff]] (due to the high proportion of foam and fabrics). | The shredding of decommissioned vehicles (also known as [[End-of-Life Vehicles]] or [[ELV]]s) produces [[Automotive Shredder Residue]] ([[ASR]]), a mixture of [[Ferrous Metal|ferrous metal]], [[Non-Ferrous Metal|non-ferrous metal]], [[glass]], fibre (including foam and fabric), rubber, [[plastic]]s and dirt<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_shredder_residue</ref>.
