A passport that stays with the product after remanufacturing
A remanufactured product has a history: original parts, replaced parts, tests performed, new performance. The passport is the natural tool to make that history verifiable.
Product genealogy
Link to the original
The passport of the remanufactured product stays linked to that of the original product, so the history is not lost when the product changes hands.
Parts and operations
Records of recovered and replaced parts, of the work carried out and of the checks performed, with reference to batches and serial numbers.
Declared performance
Performance after remanufacturing is documented and made available at the different access levels.
Process certification with SIR
Together with SIR – Società Italiana Remanufacturing, a partner of the service, we support companies on the path towards certification of their remanufacturing processes. The passport provides the documentary basis; requirements, audits and procedures are defined with SIR according to the process and the product.
For energy-related products, standard EN 45553 provides a general method for assessing the ability to remanufacture: it is one of the references we use in the analysis.
Way Point applies these principles on its own remanufacturing pilot line in Altivole (Italy), in the lighting sector.
