However, integrating reuse or remanufacturing into existing manufacturing operations also brings challenges. One of the main barriers companies face is the potential disruption to their current production flows, which often them from implementing reuse strategies, despite the long-term value they offer.
Implementing reuse in manufacturing
Sustainability, material scarcity and energy consuming manufacturing processes are accelerating the transition from a linear to a circular economy. This shift is not only essential for the environment but also presents a strategic opportunity for cost savings and business resilience. Practices such as reuse , remanufacturing, recycling and refurbishing provide a solution. By reusing materials and components, companies can reduce dependency on scarce resources, cut costs, and contribute to a more sustainable world.
