HISTORY:
Sustainability is the name of the game! Anything (that has been tested and still functioning properly) should be repurposed creating saving in wasted Ee and reducing the poisoning our environment when items are buried in the earth at the local tip needlessly.
Never heard of Ee? It is a concept that creates a measurement of ALL things (not just electronics) that humans have made and the energy used in obtaining the raw material, processing the materials right through to a finished product and even should include the shipping of the item to the distributors/retailers.

This non-polarised electrolytic capacitor is BRAND NEW, old stock
Hitano non-polarised aluminium electrolytics are often used in loudspeaker crossover networks.
Like so many "forums" online, I have read some absolute "dribble" regarding electronic component manufacturers from those who appear to have no engineering or technical background at all (a bit like the Twitter of the electronic discussion groups)
ALL of the electro's I am clearing out of our workshops have served us well over the years, it is NOT just the manufacturer that is important - storage conditions, circuit design and so many other criteria are also very important for the reliability of any electronic component. Take a high quality capacitor such as an EPCOS, put it in a badly designed circuit and it will go "poof" just like any other capacitor.
