Kurzbeschreibung:
Remanufacturing is practiced only at a very small scale in the fashion industry, despite the increasing need for a development towards dematerialization, higher revalue addition, ways to generate a high profit margin, and at the same time create more employment. A net positive environmental impact however, can only be made through remanufacturing at a larger scale.
Yet, research investigations on this matter are insufficient, and knowledge of the practices regarding new value chain models, the associated processes and designers’ approach to the product development process is still limited.
The report, based on three participatory action projects, aims to investigate how remanufacturing can be made feasible industrially, for sustainable competitiveness in the fashion industry, through detailed observation of a fairly large and successfully operating remanufacturing business.
