In the footsteps of Circular Economy Did you know that the solutions which are the best for our planet, are often also those that are best for your operating costs? The “use-and-throw-away”-mentality of Linear Economy is on a retreat, and Circular Economy is gaining ground. The Automotive Aftermarket is no exception, so if you’re not already familiar with concepts such as Remanufacturing and Reconditioning, it’s about time to get you introduced. Remanufacturing Definition: Restoring the functionality of a broken product, by replacing the faulty components with new ones. Scope of application: Euro IV,V and VI silencers (a.k.a. OneBox) A modern exhaust system is a complex system of catalysts and particulate filters. It is a durable unit but if failure occurs, replacement is a costly affair – financially, environmentally, and in terms of climate footprint. Remanufacturing of faulty Euro IV, V and VI silencers is a clever alternative – if it’s done right! Bad spare parts or poor execution can result in damage to other components, loss of vehicle efficiency, or legal action in case of excessive emissions. Dinex is ready to support professional providers of remanufacturing services with technical guidance, and a full range of high-quality, type-approved emission components. This is your guarantee for getting the most out of your remanufactured unit, save costs, and ensure continued compliance. 2 Lin omy Remanu- facturing Recondi- tioning my Ci ear Econo Re-use Materials Extend Product Lifespan Use Products Smarter rcular Econ Reconditioning Definition: Restoring a used product back to a near-new state. Scope of application: Diesel Particulate Filters A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) traps more than 99% of particulate matter in the exhaust, practically removing more than already typically present in the ambient air. But to prevent blockage of the filter it needs regular servicing, and that’s where you have to choose: Cleaning, or Reconditioning? A simple 2-step cleaning by a professional workshop removes most ash and soot, but hardened ash will remain and act like a glaze that reduces regenerative ability, leading to increased back pressure, higher fuel consumption and more frequent cleaning (vehicle downtime). Reconditioning is a third step in which chemical dissolvents are applied to restore the functionality of the catalytic coating. You will experience the same benefits as installing a new filter, but at a much lower price. Dinex Recon-RX is a full-range service enabling you to swap your existing filter with a quality-checked, type-approved reconditioned filter. You will be back in the road in no time - with 2 years warranty and a cash-back credit for the return of you old filter.
