MS SC586

Designates April 14, 2022, as "Reman Day" in Mississippi to promote remanufacturing as an industrial process that restores used or worn products to like-new condition.

Recognizes that remanufacturing supported at least 180,000 full-time jobs in the United States according to a 2012 International Trade Commission report, with production increasing 15 percent from 2009 to 2011 and generating $11.2 billion in annual exports.

Acknowledges remanufacturing as environmentally beneficial for diverting end-of-life products from landfills and as economically advantageous for businesses and communities.

Encourages businesses, state agencies, nonprofit organizations, schools, and individuals to participate in celebrating Reman Day and learn about the benefits of remanufactured products.

Directs presentation of the resolution to the Mississippi Manufacturers Association for distribution and to the Capitol Press Corps.
