"Promoting the economic and environmental benefits of remanufactured products"
The Centre for Remanufacturing and Reuse (CRR) research, build the case and promote remanufacturing and reuse of end-of-life products where sustainable benefits can be achieved.
- Buying: Reduce environmental impacts and improve business profitability by bringing remanufactured goods into your sustainable purchasing decisions, without compromising on product quality and performance.
- Disposal: Find an ethical and environmental disposal route for your end-of-life goods, depending on the availability of end markets. This will reduce the amount of waste that is sent to landfill and increase remanufacturing and reuse of quality products.

Following completion of the Business Link resource efficiency diagnostic tool, businesses can take advantage of the emda funded 'Improving Your Resource Efficiency' Programme, to provide free expert resource efficiency support to SMEs, enabling them to access 1/2 to 1 day of on site support.
