Reuse: fashion or future?
Reuse: fashion or future?
There are many benefits when we reuse – political, commercial,
social, environmental and economic. But even though reuse is a
highly preferred process within the waste hierarchy, barriers and
questions remain. Reuse is dependent on goods being collected
and made available to the next user; sufficiently high quality and
durable goods need to be put onto the primary market initially.

Abstract
There are many benefits when we reuse – political, commercial,
social, environmental and economic. But even though reuse is a
highly preferred process within the waste hierarchy, barriers and
questions remain. Reuse is dependent on goods being collected
and made available to the next user; sufficiently high quality and
durable goods need to be put onto the primary market initially.
