High standards, increased efficiency and reduced waste
When it comes to the subject of automotive spare parts, opinions are segmented into three distinct factions: those who are loyal to buying new parts, those who rely on used parts, and those who rely on remanufactured parts, the perfect choice for high performance and guaranteed safety at an affordable price.
Buying a new part involves a high expense and the need to scrap the part to be replaced, not to mention that often, if the vehicle is old, it is difficult to find a specific part because it may have gone out of production. Relying on second-hand parts, on the other hand, does not guarantee the safety and reliability of the spare part, which can compromise the functioning of the vehicle and do a lot of damage.
Remanufactured, on the other hand, is a perfect combination of new and used, because it uses a used spare part to which worn components are replaced to create a product equivalent to new. The advantages of reconditioned are many and in this article we are going to show you some of them.
Remanufactured or reconditioned: beware of nuances
Before we look at what these benefits are, it is important to make a distinction between remanufactured and reconditioned, which are often used as synonyms, but in the automotive sector indicate two different processes. These are subtle nuances that customers often confuse, but which are essential to know.
A remanufactured part is a part that is completely disassembled and cleaned, then each part is checked and tested for its integrity. Damaged or worn parts are replaced and the item is reassembled through an industrial process that restores it to its original specification, including inspection and testing.
This makes it as reliable and safe as new.
A reconditioned part is an item returned for aesthetic imperfections, lack of use or minor problems that do not require special intervention, it is then checked and repaired to be put back on the market without a production process to re-generate it.
Sustainability and efficiency
Relying on remanufactured is a choice that saves both money and resources. Indeed, remanufacturing a worn spare part means preserving the intensive use of raw materials such as steel, copper or aluminium.
Giving a new life to used components that are still in excellent condition, which can take shape in a new, reassembled product, reduces CO2 emissions and cuts energy use by almost 80%. In addition, less material is created that is difficult to dispose of.
Remanufacturing also activates a virtuous circle that combats the obsolescence of vehicle fleets: replacing worn parts with remanufactured spare parts activates a circular economy process that also reduces the need to produce new vehicles to replace old ones. And this also translates into substantial savings for companies with a large number of vehicles.
