The newly opened support center aims to promote remanufacturing by recovering discarded industrial machinery and going through processes such as disassembly, adjustment, reassembly, and inspection to produce products with original or superior performance. Specifically, it plans to develop technologies for improving the performance of remanufactured products, standardize remanufacturing process technologies, and establish performance evaluation and certification standards to ensure quality reliability.

Additionally, it will support matching between remanufacturing demand companies and supply companies, marketing for overseas market development, discovery and fostering of specialized remanufacturing companies, and training of highly skilled personnel.

In his congratulatory remarks, Vice Minister Jang Young-jin said, "The support center established in Changwon is the only one in the country in the field of industrial machinery," and added, "I ask that the support center not only supports the growth of our companies but also promotes the transition to a circular economy and contributes to achieving carbon neutrality. I hope its role will expand to other regions and industrial sectors in the future."
