Waste of Electric, Electronic and Equipment (WEEE)

Electrical and electronic equipment waste (WEEE) includes all objects and components that work electrically or electromagnetically, be it through batteries or mains supply.

There are a number of different types of electronic items that fall under the WEEE umbrella. Most household appliances fall under this, as well as toys, medical devices, consumer equipment and monitoring/control equipment.

WEEE items are wasted every year and all of these could have been easily recycled. With so many hazardous materials used to build electronic devices, sending these straight to landfill will severely damage the environment, contaminating the soil and effectively, the surrounding areas.
