Salvage

"Salvage" describes applying various technologies to restore worn and damaged components to the same functional performance of new products. Our salvage expertise significantly reduces operating costs and lowers the use of new parts and raw material. Through salvage we take components that have successfully reached the end of their serviceable life and we restore them to the functional performance of new. This delivers remanufactured products that provide another full service life for our customers.

Quality

Cat Reman parts offer the quality and precision of new Cat parts at a lower cost. Cat parts are remanufactured to strict quality standards, offer like-new performance, have a long, reliable service life and a same-as-new Cat parts warranty.

Core Management

Reman's model is an exchange business. We charge customers a price well below new for a Reman product, plus we charge a deposit. When they return their used components (called "cores"), we refund their deposit. Caterpillar uses a proprietary core management system to globally manage core returns from dealers and Caterpillar inspection facilities and determine the core credit amounts that will be refunded.
