Melvin Foust of Kring's Auto Wins CARDONE's "Go Green" Sweepstakes
PHILADELPHIA, PA - On February 7th. Melvin Foust won a brand new Vespa LX 150cc scooter from CARDONE's "Go Green" Sweepstakes. Melvin, owner of Kring's Auto in Johnstown, PA, offers undercar care services and state inspections for all vehicles. He also offers jack and hydraulic repair.
CARDONE's "Go Green" Sweepstakes was organized to promote the benefits remanufacturing offers our environment. CARDONE saves approximately 54,000 tons of cores from scrap yards every year. By recycling and reusing materials once considered trash, CARDONE helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions with every A1 CARDONE product purchased.
Not only are A1 CARDONE parts good for the environment; they are good for your wallet, too. A1 CARDONE remanufactured parts are typically 30-50% below the cost of new and perform just as well on the vehicle.

What is Remanufacturing?
Remanufacturing is the process of taking used parts, completely disassembling and thoroughly cleaning them, replacing the worn components with original quality components, and restoring them to their original function. The testing and procedures are the same as the original equipment manufacturers. Remanufactured parts are typically 30-50% below the cost of new and perform the same on your vehicle. So the part is as good as new . . . at a much better price.
CARDONE is TS-16949 certified, which means every product is built with the same quality systems as original equipment manufacturers. With our advanced technology, we don't just replace components as needed. Many times, we improve upon on original products.
We can pinpoint original weaknesses and strengthen them, making the part better than new. With CARDONE remanufactured products, you get the same quality as a new part at a ignificantly lower price. It's the high-quality, low-cost alternative to new.
Best of all, remanufacturing is an environmentally friendly business. It solves the environmental disposal issue. Used parts (cores) are returned to the remanufacturer saving tons of waste from landfills, reducing the burden of trash disposal. Additionally, the remanufacturing process saves 80% of the energy and material it would take to manufacture new parts, which is equal to 16 million barrels of crude oil.
What is "cleantech"?
Cleantech is any technology that promotes the more efficient use and re-use of the earth's resources in industrial production. Improved operational performance is achieved, while overall costs, energy consumption, waste and pollution are reduced.
