2.1.1 Reuse
The option for direct reuse presents itself when a customer returns an unused product back to the place of purchase (usually the retailer), thus injecting the product back into the supply chain. This process includes products that are completely unused and products that are returned after such light use that upgrade is not required in order to return the product to new status. Reuse also refers to the utilization of reusable packaging or shipping materials. At the retailer level, once the product is no longer serviceable or requires some sort of remanufacturing activity (i.e. cleaning, replacing accessories, repackaging, etc.) direct reuse is no longer an option. At this juncture, the product must be sent further down the RL chain for remanufacturing in order to return it to new condition. For purpose of general definition, a product can only be available for reuse if the location in which it resides in the supply chain possesses the capability to return the product to retail condition.
