Gorilla Brakes Brake Pad Recycling Program

Help the Planet and Get Rewarded – Recycle Your Brake Pads with Gorilla Brakes

At Gorilla Brakes, we are committed to sustainability and protecting the environment while continuing to provide top-quality products. That’s why we’ve launched our Brake Pad Recycling Program, offering you the chance to reduce waste and earn £1 credit towards your next purchase with every set of brake pads you return.


Why Should You Recycle Your Brake Pads?

Each year, thousands of used brake pads are discarded and end up in landfills, adding to environmental pollution. With your help, we can prevent that. By recycling the steel from your old brake pads, you’re directly contributing to reducing waste, saving resources, and supporting the circular economy.

Our goal: to recycle 1 ton of steel in the first year of our program. With each brake pad weighing 30 grams, we aim to recycle 33,333 brake pads — and you can help us get there!


How the Recycling Program Works

We’ve made it simple and easy for you to participate in the recycling program. Here’s how it works:

1. Order Your New Brake Pads

When you place your next order with us, you’ll receive a return label inside the package.

2. Reuse the Packaging

Once you’ve installed your new brake pads, simply put your old ones back into the same envelope the new ones came in.

3. Attach the Sticky Label

Use the sticky label included in your package and place it on the front of the envelope. This label makes it easy to return your old brake pads to us — free of charge.

4. Drop it in the Mail

Drop your package at any Royal Mail postbox or collection point. We’ve partnered with Royal Mail to ensure you don’t pay a penny for returning your old pads.

5. Earn Your £1 Credit

Once we receive your used brake pads, we’ll apply £1 credit to your Gorilla Brakes account, which you can use on your next purchase. It’s our way of saying thank you for supporting sustainability.


What Happens to the Recycled Brake Pads?

When you return your old brake pads, we send them to our trusted recycling partner, where the steel components are extracted and repurposed for future use. By participating in the program, you help us reduce landfill waste and contribute to a greener future.
