REMAN REMAINS THE WAY FORWARD 40 Years of Reman and Counting…

Remanufacturing has been at the heart of Valeo’s approach for over 40 years. Emphasising sustainability, endurance, and resourcefulness, Valeo leaves no stone unturned in its efforts to meet the needs of the market by providing the best possible products to distributors and garages. Annually, Valeo remanufactures 1 million products and aims to double this capacity by 2030. In Valeo and FTE, Valeo has two powerful brands that geographically overlap to create a portfolio of more than 8,000 references of remanufactured products. All Reman products with a core deposit (Re-Gen) are sold with the option of being returned after use, in exchange for refund. With a unique surcharge value for each of Valeo’s product types, it is now much easier for workshops and distributors to sort these cores being returned.

DID YOU KNOW?

Reman parts are as good as new.

On clutches for Commercial Vehicles, Valeo parts come for instance with a 2-year warranty, with unlimited mileage

everywhere in Europe. It can’t be overstated – a remanufactured clutch delivers the exact same functional characteristics as a new clutch. Remanufacturing massively reduces the demand for new raw materials, contributing to the preservation of natural resources. In today’s climate, being sustainable is at the forefront of Valeo’s thinking and integral to its approach: “I Care 4 the Planet”. Purchasing remanufactured products aligns with the principles of a circular economy, which aims to reduce waste by extending the life of existing products rather than continually producing new ones. Valeo’s reman products are less expensive than new products, and using reman becomes a no brainer. Significant savings are possible for both consumers and businesses who choose Valeo.
