Promoting reuse is beneficial. For a company to effectively reuse goods, accessibility is key. Business-to-business (B2B) digital platforms play a pivotal role in connecting suppliers and buyers who may not have prior connections.
From the seller's perspective, selling surplus or second-hand equipment, as well as deconstruction materials, not only generates additional turnover but also significantly reduces the company's CO2 footprint.
On the buyer's side, there are both financial and CO2 savings to be gained.
