Refurbished parts and carbon footprint. How are these related?

According to studies, if a company uses a refurbished part versus buying a new part from the manufacturer, it will reduce the impact on CO2 emissions by around 75%. As a result of this renovation, the demand for natural and valuable resources in the production chain will be reduced. This will help increase the circular economy of spare parts as well as other materials.


Buying refurbished parts or repair allow a company to buy equipment that looks like new with 100% functionality and a 24-month warranty; its function and performance are the same as a brand new part. Some customers may be concerned about the quality and warranty when buying a refurbished piece of equipment versus buying a new part. Our technicians quality test and repair used parts to ensure their functionality.

By doing so, you are actively helping to reduce CO2 emissions and generated waste, while at the same time getting equipment that works with a warranty, the same equipment as the official supplier has. They work just like a brand new part.

Less e-waste

Raw materials are difficult to mine and require extensive extraction and intervention in our planet. Sometimes mining takes place in countries with complex political or social situations. When mined materials reach the market, the direct and indirect damage caused is significant - not only in terms of carbon footprint and CO2 emissions.

And what happens when users throw away millions of broken or unnecessary parts that cost so much to produce? This becomes a problem - waste management. Landfills are full of spare parts and other electronic equipment that companies have thrown away over the years.
The continuous production of this equipment generates tons of electronic waste that is difficult to control. And this usually happens when consumers are not aware of the above alternative: buying refurbished products or the possibility of repairs.

When you choose to buy a refurbished spare part, you are actively contributing to the reduction of e-waste. You are also helping to slow down the endless cycle of manufacturing and selling certain products, especially because companies cannot carry out complete recycling of waste electronic components. Even if they could, their process is expensive and requires considerable effort.

The energy needed to collect and recycle waste is another source of CO2 emissions that is often not considered.

 

 

Energy and Fuel Savings

The production of electrical equipment requires high energy consumption, leading to significant gas emissions that threaten the imminent ecological transition.

It also requires the use of pollutants due to today's massive demand - especially for electronics. However, indirect energy and fuel consumption aimed at its production, such as transport by land, sea or air, or the electricity needed to run industry, can be exceptionally high and often overlooked.

When you buy refurbished parts or repairs, indirect costs are significantly reduced. Far fewer intermediaries are needed to send you refurbished equipment. The result is a significant reduction in energy consumption. All of this ultimately contributes to a more efficient circular economy and a greener economic model.

Conclusion

In summary, buying refurbished products positively impacts the environment by promoting circular economy, reducing the replacement cycle, reducing CO2 emissions, preventing further e-waste and reducing energy and fuel consumption.

This statement and mission declares that we want to help our customers understand that green alternatives exist. You can buy 100% functional refurbished electronic equipment and save money and care for the planet at the same time.

For over 13 years, our company has been offering our customers around the world this alternative, the ability to purchase refurbished parts and repairs. Even though electronic equipment manufacturers don't like this model, they are the ones who would like to produce only new and new parts. The manufacturers of new parts would prefer to push us out of the market using rumours about poor quality refurbished parts and second hand new parts. However, we are trying to do much more for our planet. Our satisfied customers are an indication that this is the right way to reduce our carbon footprint.
