Re-used Office Furniture:
Reused, "used" or "as-is." office furniture is recycled office furniture that has been returned to the market for sale without repair or improvement to its appearance.
Refurbished Office Furniture:
Refurbished office furniture is reused office furniture that has had value added to the product by being "touched-up" or cosmetically improved and then returned to the market.
Remanufactured Office Furniture:
Remanufactured office furniture is recycled office furniture that has been completely disassembled, inspected, then cleaned, repaired or replaced. It is refinished then reassembled to "like new" condition.
The Wizard Problem Solver, with his company, Neuli-Manufactured Furniture, buys and sells used office furniture and panel systems as well as original and cloned office furniture parts then recycles them.
New Office Furniture:
New office furniture is purchased from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for resale or use by your company. It is composed entirely of OEM parts. The parts are made mostly of raw materials (natural resources) that have not been used before, although some manufacturers' use some components that contain recycled materials.
The Problem Solver Organization provides today's corporations with a way to maintain the value of their current furniture by refurbishing. If they choose to buy new furniture they can recover some of the cost by selling their old inventory. This keeps office furniture from over straining our landfills AND presents quality furniture at a significant savings to other businesses.
Remanufactured furniture look as good and performs as well as new office furniture, but companies can expect an average savings of 30% to 50% percent just by BUYING RECYCLED. More On Recycling
