FPT Industrial at Rematec Amsterdam 2023! Innovation, sustainability and partnerships, are the three pillars of the global automotive company
Sergio Carpentiere, FPT Industrial’s Vice President of Customer Service & Digital, presents the Iveco Group reman offer and what has driven the company to participate in Rematec Amsterdam 2023.
Iveco Group is a global automotive leader active in the Commercial and Specialty Vehicles, Powertrain, and related Financial Services areas, and it bases its strategy on the three pillars of innovation, sustainability and partnerships. Each of Iveco Group’s 8 brands is a major force in its own specific line of business. FPT Industrial is a global leader in advanced powertrain technologies offering a vast array of solutions in the agriculture, construction, marine, power generation, and commercial vehicles sectors.
Why Iveco Group is attending Rematec Amsterdam through FPT?
Since the engine is made up of the most complex components all the Reman business has been assigned to FPT to capitalize on its engine know-how (especially for upcoming electronic ones) and leverage all engineering functions support. FPT through the Customer Service department oversees product development, core collection, business development, quality and sales & marketing. Year after year, we increasingly realize how important the concept of reuse, recycling, and sustainability is.
Remanufacturing worn components (known as cores) reduces waste, reuses materials, and promotes the recycling of recoverable materials. Additionally, by avoiding the extraction of new raw materials, we reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Core regeneration is an industrial process that ensures the same performance standards as new components, triggering a virtuous cycle of saving raw materials and reducing landfill waste. This process provides customers with reliability and reduced vehicle downtime at competitive prices.
Remanufacturing a product is much more sustainable than mere recycling, as it saves energy and allows for the reuse of some of the discarded materials. In our plant, the water used for component cleaning is also reused for cleaning the facility itself, aligning the production cycle with the principles of the circular economy.
How does FPT Industrial's Customer Service envision its future and the future of remanufacturing on a global level?
In the coming years, we aim to reach an increasingly global market and further develop our technologies to make the remanufacturing process greener and fully meet the needs of customers who are becoming more conscious of sustainability and zero impact. We have already started working with partners to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% by 2030 in our plants and operations.
Another initiative we would like to present at Rematec is our partnership with Treedom to plant 500 trees in our MYFPT Original Reman forest, another way to support our commitment to sustainability.
