WEEE recycling is the process of recycling any household or non-household electrical goods or electrical equipment that are broken, if a product has a plug socket or a battery, WEEE recycling is required. This will include, freezers, fridges, dishwashers, microwaves, computers, game consoles, printers and TVs, while ensuring we recycle smaller items such as mobile phones, speakers, table lamps, electrical tools and medical devices such as ventilators and defibrillators. Recycling electrical products is crucial due to the interior components. If an electrical device becomes damaged and no longer works, it will quickly be replaced as repairs will typically be a less cost-effective solution.
Disposing of electrical waste in a landfill does not only take up a lot of space but it can also result in harmful metals such as mercury and lead that can sock into the landfill soils and also pollute the water supplies.
WEEE recycling is incredibly important for anyone whether they are manufacturers, distributors or resellers of electrical equipment. If electrical goods are disposed of without following WEEE recycling guidelines then strict penalties may be enforced.
