Ok, so what about really old equipment or stuff that cannot be used?

We breakdown the equipment to its component parts, separating plastics, metals and glass. These core materials are sent on to be recycled and used again. If hard drives and equipment with memories have to be destroyed we grind these down to 3mm pellets, they are bagged and again the two core materials are separated, usually plastic and metal and then recycled.

But what about batteries, florescent strips and traditional light bulbs?

Batteries are separated into basic materials, such as plastics and metal, these are recycled. The battery’s internal material is then grounds down, and again, this is recycled. Light bulbs and strips have mainly two component parts, aluminum and glass, both are recycled.

So there we have it, absolutely nothing goes to land-fill; everything is re-used somewhere, in something! We operate in full within the law and create a full audit on everything we process. We know from when waste electrical arrives until we dispose of the products where it has come from and where it went to.
