1. Expansion of "Honda Recycle Parts" Business
[Honda Recycle Parts]
http://www.honda.co.jp/parts/recycle/index.html
(Japanese only)
In July 2001, we started selling "Honda Recycle Parts," which include reused parts as well as the highly functional recycled parts* that had been sold since 1998, such as the torque converters.
1)Recycled parts
Expansion of the lineup
We examined the sale of new recycled parts to be sold as Honda Recycle Parts in fiscal 2001. However, since we could not obtain satisfactory results concerning technologies, production functions, or performance, so we did not market any new items in the fiscal year.
Sales results
The sales of recycled parts decreased over the previous year. This is due to a decrease in the number of existing models which can make use of recycled parts. We will expand the number of models which can make use of recycled parts and develop new items.
2)Reused parts
Reused parts comprise second-hand parts (16 items in total) that are selected and removed from end-of-life vehicles two generations before, and removed parts (9 items in total) that are taken away to install optional parts.
We started selling these reused parts in the Kanto District in July 2001 and in the rest of Japan in January 2002.
Honda Recycle Parts
*
Following the introduction of Honda Recycle Parts in fiscal 2001, we have decided to report on the Remanufacturing Business that we had been reporting on until last year under the section on Reused Parts, which comprises Honda Recycle Parts.
2. Recovery and Recycling of Bumpers
Also in fiscal 2001, we recovered bumpers from Honda automobile dealers as well as from general servicing and repair companies.
•
Number of bumpers recovered in fiscal 2001 and the amount of resin recovered.....286,926 bumpers, 1,004 tons
Bumpers replaced for repair ..... 279,966 bumpers, 980 tons
End-of-life vehicle bumpers ...... 6,960 bumpers, 24 tons
•
Weight of resin recycled from recovered bumpers: 1,186 tons
Products made from the recycled resin
Automobiles: splash shield, splash guard, bumper for repair, etc.
Motorcycles: under cover
In fiscal 2001, the number of types of bumpers fit for repair was increased by 53, making a total of 63 types.
Note)
For fiscal 2001 and onwards, recovered bumper weight is to be calculated on the assumption that a single bumper weighs 3.5 kg.
