TAR began to tap WEI beginningfrom the summer of 2015 to find ways touse GPS in Australia. After talks aboutfeasibility of local business in Australia,
the parties reached an agreement. From

GPS calculates the burden on theenvironment in terms of carbon dioxide

compared to new parts, and shares theresulting data with repair shops andend users. Business operators who
have introduced GPS are increasingly
promoting to their customers thecontribution that recycled parts make tothe environment.
