Modern electronics are made of rare and expensive resources, which can be recycled and reused if the waste is effectively managed, saving raw materials.<\/p>\n
From big to small, from lamps to IT, when devices reach their end-of-life they are considered Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). WEEE contains a complex mixture of materials, some of which are hazardous, which can cause major environmental and health problems if the discarded devices are not managed properly.<\/p>\n
Improving the collection, treatment, and recycling of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) at the end of its life can:<\/p>\n
\u2022 improve sustainable production and consumption<\/p>\n
\u2022 increase resource efficiency<\/p>\n
\u2022 contribute to the circular economy<\/p>\n<\/div>
