The initiative, initially launched for own-brand bicycles at the end of last year, will now include more sports categories such as fitness equipment, racket sports, water sports gear and camping equipment.<br \/>\nCustomers can complete a quick online assessment to register their return and receive an immediate quote. They can then drop off their product at a Decathlon store to receive vouchers valued at up to 40% of the item\u2019s worth.<\/p>\n<p>Decathlon will refurbish and resell the products. Additionally, customers can get their sports kits repaired at Decathlon stores using genuine parts from an extensive inventory. The sports retailer estimates that 800,000 products will be bought-back, resold or revived through the service, with more than 1,000 bicycles reported to have been upcycled since the service rolled out in the UK last year.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement aligns with upcoming major sports events such as the Olympics, Euros and Wimbledon, anticipated in the coming months. Decathlon\u2019s research also indicates that 28% of individuals intend to adopt a new sport this year to participate in the surrounding events. Decathlon\u2019s buy-back service will provide customers with an accessible opportunity to explore various sports at a fraction of the typical expenses, while mitigating waste generation.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edie.net\/decathlon-expands-buy-back-scheme-for-sports-gear-to-promote-circular-economy\/\">Edie<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/2-516\/\">Decathlon expands buy-back scheme for sports gear to promote circular economy<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[14304,838,14305,575],"class_list":["post-130029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-buy-back","tag-circular-economy","tag-decathlon","tag-environmental-news-en"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130029","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=130029"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130029\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=130029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=130029"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=130029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
