With such a growing need to "check if you really need the product you really need," and "I want to rent and use only when I buy and own", Rentio is a 2015 service.Since the start, it has been said that the number of users has been increased while expanding the lineup and usage of rental products.
It has been steadily growing even in the corona evil since last year, and in May 2021, the number of new nations was about 2 year -on -year..6 times, repeat rate is more than 33 % a year.Against the background of the growth, it seems that the demand for "I want to try it slowly at home" has been born due to reduced opportunities for touch -ups at real stores with self -restraint.In addition, the company has analyzed that there is a growing needs such as "I want to try it first before purchasing," and "I want to rent it for things that can be rented."
"Reduce throwing away" Rentio's efforts to SDGs
In recent years, SDGS is working on various companies for sustainable future.In the case of RENTIO, it can be said that the service itself has led to the initiative of a "recycling society".
Usually, unnecessary home appliances will be recycled or discarded, but in Rentio, we will check the products returned by users and reuse them.Nearly 450,000 maintenance times without throwing away, more than 44,000 items have been reused.It is said that it is used with 360,000 users a year to "reduce discarding".
Rental -Return -Reuse "Recycling -type model"
In Rentio, one product is used by many users by repeating the "rental -return -reuse" cycle.In addition, inspection and maintenance are also performed in the optimal way for each product so that this cycle can be repeated longer.Many products are maintained by internal staff members, and they say that they are repaired in cooperation with manufacturers and specialists, rather than discarding if there is a failure that cannot be fixed in -house.
In the conventional consumption models that you buy and own, it is often discarded when the buyer is no longer needed.However, in Rentio, we aim to realize a sustainable consumer society by renting one product when needed and circulating when needed, instead of "if you can't buy and use it".increase.

Many people have a wasteful experience, saying, "I bought home appliances and cameras, but I didn't use it very much," "I bought it but didn't suit me."If you can rent a necessary product when you need it and try to see if it is a product that suits you before purchasing, not only will the waste of shopping will decrease, but one product will meet the needs of many users.can make it, right.
RENTIO hopes that by spreading the options of "sharing" in the field of home appliances through services, RENTIO wants to reduce excessive production over the medium to long term, reduce disposal and protect environmental resources.I'm off.
At the time of delivery of rental products, we have implemented an effort to reduce the volume during transportation by using a unique delivery box that fits the product.Reducing the volume during transportation has led to an increase in transportation efficiency, and has also announced that this initiative has achieved an improvement in transportation efficiency of 31 units per year in 2 -ton trucks.
