Why WEEE Recycling Matters?

Environmental Protection

Over 75% of e-waste ends up in landfills, leaking toxins into soil and water. Recycling prevents pollution.

Legal Compliance

The UK WEEE Regulations 2013 require businesses to recycle e-waste through approved providers.

Resource Recovery

Recycling 1 tonne of circuit boards yields 800x more gold than mining 1 tonne of ore.

Data Security

Devices like laptops and servers often store sensitive data – improper disposal risks breaches.
