Best of the Blog - The Three Drivers of Reman

Thursday, 24 November 2016

The main drivers for companies to engage in remanufacturing are not the lure of environmental savings and economic incentives or the fear of legislation: the security of cores, future spare parts supply and brand protection are the underlying reasons.

Firstly, OES/VMs want to control the cores market and not let an independent aftermarket remanufacturer take advantage of the design knowledge, material and energy inputs invested by them.

Finally, OES/VMs want to protect their brand image and that translates to keeping control over providing the highest quality product possible.
