Stellantis and Valeo took a step toward realising their circular-economy strategic coöperation by launching the first windshield-mounted video camera remanufactured by Valeo at their Circular Electronics Lab in Nevers.
This premiere defines the path of Stellantis in being the first carmaker to offer remanufactured video cameras, blazing a trail toward a whole new ‘SustainEra’ reman product range dedicated to ADAS.
In 2022, Valeo established the Circular Electronics Lab in Nevers, focusing on a unique remanufacturing approach for rapid, high-quality product development, testing, and delivery.
Collaborating with Stellantis, Valeo successfully launched a remanufactured video camera within a year, saving up to 99 per cent of natural resources compared to new ones. This camera, the first of its kind from Valeo, offers the same 2-year warranty and performance as new parts. Stellantis are the first car-maker to integrate it in their aftersales offer.
SustainEra, the label identifying the Stellantis circular-economy spare parts range, guarantees up to 80 per cent of raw material savings and a cutdown by as much as half of CO2 compared to equivalent new parts. Valeo are the first supplier to implement the new SustainEra security labels, which prominently display the new Circular Economy label.
