FAQ
Common Curiosities About ARC
What is Remanufacturing?
Remanufacturing is a comprehensive and rigorous industrial process by which a previously sold, worn, or non-functional product or component is returned to a “like-new” or “better-than-new” condition and warranted in performance level and quality.
Remanufacturing is not the same as “recycling” or “repairing”.
What are the Impacts of Remanufacturing?
The US is the world’s largest producer, consumer and exporter of remanufactured products. In its 2012 report, the U.S. International Trade Commission estimated that that the value of US remanufactured production had reached $43 billion by 2011, supporting approximately 180,000 full-time jobs (Remanufactured Goods: An Overview of the U.S. and Global Industries, Markets, and Trade. U.S. International Trade Commission, October 2012).
What Happens to Items That Can't be Remanufactured?
ARC provides a vertically integrated returns management solution to our clients. Products that do not meet the agreed standards for resale or are beyond economic remanufacturing are demanufactured into their major components and either shredded or aggregated to send to approved down-stream processors. Failed products become the raw materials for future products. #CircularEconomy
