Caterpillar Remanufacturing Services Available To Others

Caterpillar Inc. is extending the reach of its services businesses by making its remanufacturing services available to other companies in industries it does not already serve. The industries include defense, automotive and industrial products. "Caterpillar Remanufacturing Services will make Caterpillar's global remanufacturing capability available to OEMs in other industries, including defense," says Bill Springer, vice president of Caterpillar's Product Support Division. It also "builds on our very successful 'services business model,' which included Caterpillar Logistics Services and Caterpillar Financial Services." Based in Peoria, Ill., Caterpillar manufactures construction and mining equipment. Its current remanufacturing program processes more than 2 million units annually and recycles over 100 million pounds of used products each year.
