Socio-economic and environmental study of the Canadian remanufacturing sector and other value-retention processes in the context of a circular economy / prepared for Environment and Climate Change Canada...: En4-438/2021E-PDF

"Remanufacturing and other Value-Retention Processes (VRPs) have been identified as a way to reduce waste and other adverse environmental impacts through prolonging the useful life of a product or its components. In addition, these activities can have enormous economic and social benefits: they are generally labour-intensive and require skilled labour to perform. This study has been carried out, on behalf of ECCC, to quantify the potential benefits of VRPs in Canada; the costs associated with carrying them out; and to identify barriers to the growth of these activities in Canada"--Introduction, page 1.
