A Refurbishment Program Built on Canon Medical Expertise
Officially launched in 2010, Secondlife was created with a practical need: to find a responsible and reliable way to extend the usable life of high-quality systems through meticulous OEM-led refurbishment.Over time, the program evolved into a dedicated refurbishment operation – managed through the Secondlife Refurbishment Centre in Amstelveen (the Netherlands) and with availability worldwide – with defined areas for receiving, cleaning and disinfection, engineering work, and outbound preparation. It has since become a successful venture, providing cost-effective, top-quality refurbished Canon Medical systems.
