Robert Bosch GmbH has won a special award for future-oriented technology in the field of electronics remanufacturing as part of the Automechanika Green Directory initiative.


The 25 exhibitors with particularly sustainable and resource-friendly products have been selected for listing in the ‘Green Directory’ guide for visitors. The competition for places was open to all exhibitors of Automechanika 2014. 

The highest score in the judging was achieved by Robert Bosch GmbH for its system of remanufacturing electronic automotive components. Explaining the jury’s decision, Dr Gerhard Angerer of Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research ISI said, “Repairing, reconditioning and reselling defective electronic components is a future-oriented technology that is growing in importance. Robert Bosch GmbH has made supplying exchange electronic automotive components an economically attractive proposition, which represents a breakthrough in the practice of throwing away defective electronic products and means valuable raw materials are kept in the economic cycle.”

The jury’s report also states, “Remanufacturing electronic components requires in-depth knowledge of the system architecture and complex test algorithms. The technology is applicable to both cars and trucks and is a model for other product groups where a throw-away mentality still exists today, e.g., in the field of entertainment electronics.”
