Project description
A circular business model to sustain repairs and remanufacturing
When a household appliance like a washing machine breaks down, the cost of repair is often too high and not worth the fuss. The right to repair, however, is important in the circular economy. In view of this, the EU-funded DiCiM project will develop digital solutions to boost new circular economy business models. It will aim to achieve efficiency and responsiveness in the value recovery activities – from inspection and disassembly to repairing, remanufacturing and recycling. The aim is to enable the reuse of products, parts and materials. Specifically, DiCiM will demonstrate integrated digital solutions for whitegoods (refrigerators, washing machines), electronics (printers) and automotive. A particular focus will be on increasing the recovery of spare parts.
