Durable and long-lasting components

With an optimally designed long-lasting component from Deloro, you contribute to sustainability, environmental protection and resource efficiency. A component that works reliably over a longer period, must be replaced and disposed of less frequently. This means waste reduction and the saving of valuable resources, as fewer new products need to be produced and transported. At the same time, the need for raw materials and energy to produce replacement parts is reduced. Overall, the extended service life reduces the environmental impact and the future costs for new parts. And if it does need to be replaced eventually, we can in many cases recycle 100% of the material – benefiting businesses, consumers and the environment.

Refurbishing of components and the circular economy

In the form of a “small” recycling loop, Deloro offers the refurbishing of components multiple times by means of a Deloro upgrade. The wear protection which has served its purpose, is expertly removed and replaced – the component thus gets a second, third or fourth life.

However, when refurbishment is no longer appropriate for technical or commercial reasons, the life cycle of the component is far from over. Deloro repurchases such components, melts them down and returns the valuable metal back into the production cycle. This creates the closed material cycle: an old component becomes a new one – ready for the next application, the next processing, the next recirculation.

Our engineering enables more product sustainability

We help our customers create more sustainable products. Our approach involves optimizing both development and production processes. Resource efficiency is always a key consideration in our work. Our engineering consulting in the fields of development, process optimisation and material selection helps to comply with statutory environmental requirements and to achieve Corporate Responsibility targets regarding sustainability. This way, we strengthen the regulatory position and competitiveness of our customers and promote resource efficiency as well as the use of environmentally friendly materials.

Total cost of ownership and protection of investment

The use of optimised materials extends the service life of components or machines. Maintenance and repair effort is reduced, and fewer spare parts are needed. This lowers operating and maintenance costs as well as downtimes. Thus, productivity is increased. Overall, companies benefit from efficient use of resources and low overall costs across the entire life cycle.

Repair or regeneration of components

Deloro technologies enable a new generation of components that can be repaired or regenerated when they are close to their wear limit, without any compromises regarding safety and operational stability. Deloro can make a valuable contribution with its expertise at the start of the product life cycle.
