1. Professional disassembly

In the first step of the remanufacturing process, the used part is professionally disassembled into its constituent parts, and recyclable materials are systematically separated and sent for recycling as appropriate. This helps to conserve the environment: Compared with new parts, manufacturing Mercedes‑Benz Genuine Remanufactured Parts requires considerably less energy and raw materials. This means that 99% of the parts can be reused or sent for recycling.

2. Extensive cleaning

In a thorough cleaning process, which is tailored to the specific workpiece, various cleaning methods are employed – for example, special washing processes and solvent baths for large-scale cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning for degreasing, or sand- and glass-bead blasting for cleaning specific areas. But nothing compares to the final handiwork when it comes to perfecting the cleaning result.

3. Visual and functional test

All parts must meet the highest test criteria. To this end, each part is subjected to a careful visual and functional examination that allows any damage to be identified immediately. Complex measuring methods are applied to check dimensional accuracy and detect faults that are otherwise difficult to identify, such as hairline cracks or leakage. If the parts to not meet the test criteria, they are rejected.

4. State-of-the-art remanufacturing

All reusable parts are remanufactured using state-of-the-art processes, ensuring that they fully comply with Mercedes‑Benz specifications. When repairing engines, for example, we employ manufacturing techniques that only we as the manufacturer of the genuine part can ensure. Remanufacturing Mercedes‑Benz Genuine Remanufactured Parts saves a significant amount of energy and raw materials. This conservation of resources ensures that our repairs reflect fair value and that we can implement an ecofriendly recycling process.

5. Careful assembly

All inspected parts are repaired in accordance with strict Mercedes‑Benz criteria and assembled to create a complete Mercedes‑Benz remanufactured part. Quality-relevant changes identified in series production are automatically incorporated in the added-value process for Mercedes‑Benz remanufactured parts.

6. Strict quality control

Prior to shipping, the restored quality of each remanufactured part is tested on Mercedes‑Benz test stands in accordance with the strict criteria of series production – for maximum quality, functionality, and longevity. Thanks to integrated and updated control units, they can be installed into major assemblies without any problems.
