Description
<p>In recent years, the EU has been actively engaged in efforts and research on PfR (preparing for reuse), which involves sorting, cleaning, repairing, and reassembling usable items from used appliances. However, Japan has not made significant progress in this area. In this context, Yamada Holdings stands out as a company that collects and sorts used appliances in its stores, transporting them to reutilization facilities for PfR. They have successfully established an efficient and technologically reliable system, enabling the provision of affordable reused products and creating a positive cycle for the environment and the economy. If other retailers can collaborate in building a shared system, PfR could make significant advancements.In addition to collaborative efforts among retailers, the progress of PfR requires the cooperation of manufacturers in ensuring a stable supply of parts. Furthermore, it is believed that a legal revision allowing retailers to participate in appliance recycling under the Home Appliance Recycling Act is necessary to redirect unsuitable items for reuse towards recycling. It may also be necessary to establish targets and obligations for retailers regarding the collection of reused items.</p>
