Reduce waste volumes

Recycling your ewaste diverts it from entering landfill – instead extending the useful life of its materials via the circular economy.

Prevent resource depletion

Recycling ewaste helps recover valuable resources such as precious metals, reducing the need for further extraction of earth’s natural resources.

Create more jobs

Recycling ewaste creates jobs for collection and transportation, sorting and disassembly. These jobs contribute to a healthy economy.

Give your ewaste a second life

Your old electronics may not work like they used to, but they still have value. Through our program, your electronics will disassembled into different components. These then undergo further processing, transforming them into new products!

Together we can achieve a more sustainable future where resources are used, re-used, repurposed or recycled.

Frequently asked questions

Once items are received, they are manually sorted by type and inspected to separate different components. Recovered materials, such as precious metals and plastics, go through processes like shredding and refining to achieve higher purity levels for reuse in manufacturing. Special attention is given to managing hazardous components like batteries and chemicals to prevent environmental harm.

The funds are used to the cover the intricate processes and handling costs associated with such disposing of waste. These include:

  • Transportation logistics to move the unwanted items to the recycling facilities
  • Salaries for the workers who handle the collection, sorting and processing
  • Specialised machinery used for disassembling and processing the waste components 
  • Safe disposal of non-recyclable components, especially those that are hazardous

All item requirements are listed above in the product description. There is a comprehensive list of what we do and do not accept.
