moreThe Environmental Impact of Remanufacturing
Remanufacturing involves the dismantling, cleaning, repairing, replacing components as necessary, and reassembling to produce like new product that is functionally and cosmetically as good or better than new. Remanufacturing consumes less energy and fewer raw materials than the original manufacturing process.
- Each year, remanufacturing office panels at one of our plants results in energy savings that could power (342) average U.S. households for one full year.
- Remanufacturing (100) workstations could power (3) households for one full year.
- One year of office panel remanufacturing at our plant conserves approximately 8.5 million pounds of raw materials.
- One year of office panel remanufacturing at one of our plants avoids the release of more than 6.9 million poinds of CO2 into the environment. Helping reduce the "Greenhouse" effect on Mother Earth.
- The energy savings from remanufacturing 1 office workstation (5 panels) could power (10) average American households for one whole day.
