25 million household appliances are thrown away each year in France... and only 3% are refurbished: an economic and ecological waste.
Refurbishment thus offers a more affordable option for consumers, allowing access to quality equipment at a lower cost. Moreover, since repairing washing machines is not within everyone's reach and is reserved for certain technicians, it also promotes job creation in the refurbishment sector, thereby stimulating the local economy.
It is from this observation that Claire Bretton founded Underdog.
By extending the lifespan of products, we limit waste production, which has a positive impact on communities and future generations. Companies engaged in refurbishment play a crucial role in promoting the environment and encouraging more ethical consumption.
