Sustainability is the core of the remanufacturing process. Remanufacturing keeps material out of landfills, requires fewer natural resources and creates less air pollution compared to manufacturing new goods. Further, SRC Companies recover scrap material and recycle unusable materials to protect the environment.

NEW vs. Reman
When a new product is made from scratch, it involves hundreds of steps leading up to the actual manufacturing process. The demand for raw materials, energy and other resources when manufacturing new products is continually increasing.
The remanufacturing process returns a previously worn, non-functional or used product to like-new or better-than-new condition. Reman gives old products a new life cycle, keeps waste out of landfills and saves valuable resources while eliminating pollution required for manufacturing new products. Remanufacturing saves money, resources and our planet.
