Remanufacturing is not only a cost saving alternative, but also an environmentally friendly alternative.
It is estimated that remanufacturing just 40 cubicles will divert one tractor-trailer load of furniture
from a landfill.
Due to the numerous lives it gives a products, remanufacturing also conserves natural resources.
For each pound of new material used in remanufacturing, five to nine pounds of original materials
are conserved by diverting products and natural resources from the solid waste stream, landfill use
is reduced and the lives of existing resources are extended.
Often times, ‘green’ products, while they may be the right thing to buy, may cost up to 20 percent
more. Remanufactured office cubicles are good for the environment, and it cost substantially less
than new product, and performs like a new product. What more could you ask for? It’s not a hard
decision to make.”
The Process
Remanufactured office cubicles describe the process by which recycled office cubicles are
completely disassembled. Its parts, inspected, cleaned, repaired or replaced, reassembled, and
refinished to “like new” conditions before being returned to the market
By replacing worn parts; repainting or relaminating cabinets and desks; and reupholstering panels
and chairs, office cubicles are given a new life.
Existing corporations are able to have their old furniture remanufactured or remanufactured pieces
coordinated with existing furniture to give their offices an updated appearance, which, as we all
know, improves employee productivity and creativity.
Startup companies that may not have been able to afford quality new furniture, can reap the benefits
of remanufacturing with “like new” furnishings at a fraction of the cost. It is estimated that
companies can save an average of 50 to 80 percent by buying recycled.
