Duplicate a field group to another page

I’ve setup a (repeater) field group which works great. I can add an icon/title/paragraph and duplicate this multiple times to create a row of ‘features’.

This field is used on a certain type of ‘post’ page and as the text can be different for each page, it’s not a problem that the layout needs to be created from scratch again on every page.

My problem/question is, I want to use the same type a field group on the homepage. I thought I could just apply the same field group to the homepage but my problem is once the content is added to the homepage, I need to load the exact same content onto another page. So I thought maybe creating a new field group with basically the exact same fields/markup but a different name might be needed – is that the best way to handle this?

So after I’ve done that I need to load the exact same content onto another page. What is the best way to achieve this without re-entering the content on the additional page – or is that not possible?

Or would you essentially have one ‘master’ page where the content is added and then it can be automatically pulled into a select template?

For reference my code currently looks like like:

<?php if( have_rows('feature_item') ): ?>

	<section class="band band--tint">
		<div class="wrap">
			
			<ul class="features">
	
			<?php while( have_rows('feature_item') ): the_row(); 
		
				// vars
				$icon = get_sub_field('icon');
				$title = get_sub_field('title');
				$text = get_sub_field('text');
		
				?>
		
				<li class="features__item">
		
					<?php if( $icon ): ?>
						<div class="features__icon-wrap">
							<img src="<?php echo $icon['url']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $icon['alt'] ?>" class="icon" />
						</div>
					<?php endif; ?>
		
					<?php if( $title ): ?>
						<h3 class="features__title"><?php echo $title; ?></h3>
					<?php endif; ?>
					
					<?php if( $text ): ?>
						<p class="features__text"><?php echo $text; ?></p>
					<?php endif; ?>
		
				</li>
		
			<?php endwhile; ?>
			
			</ul>

		</div>
	</section>

<?php endif; ?>
