What are the benefits of using remanufactured components for construction machinery?
Did you know there’s an affordable and more sustainable alternative to buying new parts for your Hitachi Construction Machinery equipment? Read on to find out more about our remanufactured components.
A sustainable approach to construction machinery parts
As construction machines work in tough conditions, replacement parts will be needed at some point, and remanufactured options can prove more economical and sustainable than new parts.
These products also become more durable, saving customers money over the long-term, while creating more skilled jobs within the industry – further benefitting the local economies.
Quality machinery and excavator parts
Another main benefit of using remanufactured parts is the environmental impact – reducing waste and limiting pressure on the earth’s resources. Notably, remanufacturing uses up to 85% less energy than original manufacturing. Quality parts can also be remanufactured more than once, further limiting waste and landfill.
Is remanufacturing similar to recycling?
In essence, yes – remanufacturing is a form of recycling. The process involves re-purposing machine components, rather than adding to landfill.
However, while recycling involves breaking a product down and reprocessing it into something new, remanufacturing preserves an entire product or part and returns it to the manufacturer’s original factory specification.
