Volvo to launch remanufacturing programme

Volvo will use the bC India show to launch its Volvo Remanufactured (Reman) Programme onto the Indian market.

The scheme encourages a more sustainable approach to spare parts by allowing customers to have old components renovated to the same condition as a new part, cutting down on waste. These come with a warranty from Volvo and are cheaper than buying new spare parts.

Volvo is supporting the scheme, which is available in numerous other countries around the world, with the opening of a Reman centre at its factory in Peenya, near Bangalore, India.

In addition to launching this initiative, the company's stand will feature a range of machines, including excavators, loaders, compactors and pavers, as well as other soft systems like CareTrack, Volvo's telematics system to help track and manage equipment.
