The Remanufacturing Catalyst is a business support initiative from the University of Brighton, designed to help SMEs in the South East explore circular economy opportunities. The programme focuses on remanufacturing – the process of restoring used products to like-new condition – with the aim of reducing waste, saving costs, and unlocking new revenue streams.

Through workshops, innovation clinics, and hands-on technical support, participating businesses can gain insight into remanufacturing methods, product design for longevity, and supply chain sustainability. The programme also connects businesses to university expertise and specialist facilities, helping to accelerate practical development and problem-solving.

If your business is curious about remanufacturing or broader circular economy principles, this could be a valuable route to explore. Not sure if it’s right for you? The Growth Hub team is happy to help you assess your options and connect you to the most suitable support.
