Imagine a world free from e-waste
We’re working towards a bright future where devices are built to last and our ‘throw-away’ culture is a thing of the past. Let’s build a circular economy for electronics where nothing is wasted. It’s possible.
Why we do what we do
- In the UK, for every single phone in use, four sit unused
- 50% of the devices we throw away are still working
- Electronic waste (e-waste) is already the world’s fastest growing and most toxic waste stream and only 20% is currently recycled
(Data from: Green Alliance; US EPA; World Economic Forum Jan 2019 report)
Not your average recycling company
Let’s end the act of “throwing away”.
We now know “throw-away” can mean our waste is exported illegally to less regulated countries where toxic debris piles up, human lives are endangered and valuable resources are lost.
Let’s build a circular economy, where nothing is waste
We optimise the lifecycle of your devices, so you don’t have to.
- Convenient collections – ensuring a wide range of devices can be cared for.
- Repair – our team of skilled engineers bring devices back to life.
- Reuse – redeploying reliable, affordable devices to schools, SMEs, and consumers.
- Recycling – if we can’t fix it, we’ll make sure it goes to one of our curated group of advanced recycling partners.
