New EuReComp Paper Offers Guidance on Reuse and Repair of Composites in Aeronautics and Wind Energy

Submitted on Wed, 04/30/2025 - 11:30

A recent scientific publication developed under the EuReComp project offers a comprehensive overview of conformity assessment strategies related to the reuse and repair of composite components, with a focus on the aeronautics and wind energy industries.

 

Published in MDPI Proceedings, the paper titled “Business Guidance on Conformity Assessment of Reuse and Repair for Aeronautics and Wind Energy” evaluates the challenges and requirements for bringing reused or repaired composite parts into compliance with safety, performance, and quality standards.

 

Key aspects covered include:

  • Regulatory frameworks relevant to repaired or repurposed composite components
  • Practical considerations for integrating reuse into industrial value chains
  • Risk management and safety criteria for end-of-life materials
  • Business-level recommendations supporting the adoption of circular practices

 

This contribution supports EuReComp’s broader objective of promoting sustainable, scalable solutions in composite recycling and reuse—particularly in sectors with stringent operational requirements.
