Resumen

En el marco de la estrategia de la Unión Europea sobre la transición al paradigma de la economía circular, se está promoviendo en diferentes ámbitos regulatorios la reutilización de productos ya comercializados o puestos en servicio, mediante su reparación, reacondicionamiento y remanufacturación. Tales procesos ya aparecían tímidamente en la legislación europea. Sin embargo, la irrupción de los bienes con elementos digitales y el impulso de la economía circular son los factores que han creado la necesidad de poner el foco legislativo en esta categoría de bienes. Actualmente nos hallamos en tiempos de cambios legislativos profundos en los que la Unión Europea está adoptando nuevos reglamentos y directivas que actualizan los principios en los que se basa el derecho contractual y el derecho extracontractual europeo. Este trabajo tiene por objeto analizar cómo se tratan los bienes reacondicionados y remanufacturados, a la luz de los desarrollos más recientes, y qué consecuencias tienen en la responsabilidad del productor cuando estos procesos implican una modificación sustancial de sus productos.

N2 - Within the framework of the European Union’s strategy on the transition to the circular economy paradigm, the reuse of products already on the market or put into service, through repair, refurbishment and remanufacturing, is being promoted in different regulatory spheres. Both processes were already timidly appearing in European legislation. However, the irruption of goods with digital elements and the promotion of the circular economy are the factors that have created the need to put the legal focus on this category of goods. We are currently at a time of deep legislative changes in which the European Union is adopting new regulations and directives that update the principles on which European contract law and tort law are based. This paper aims to analyse how refurbished and remanufactured goods are dealt with in the light of the current state of the art and what the consequences are for the liability of the producer when these processes involve a substantial modification of its products.
