SCANIA aims to cut emissions in vehicle production by utilising remanufactured parts on its main assembly line in Sweden.
In a world first for heavy vehicle OEMs, saw a new gearbox built on the production line using remanufactured parts. The test saw 50% less new parts used and a 45% reduction in carbon emissions produced.
Fredrik Nilzén, head of sustainability at Scania, said; “This remanufactured gearbox is an example of how the manufacturing of heavy vehicles can become more sustainable, circular and efficient, while still retaining the highest quality standards.”
