WEEE Directive
Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is the fastest growing element in the municipal waste stream. There are many hazardous substances used in IT Equipment including lead, cadmium, mercury, bromine compounds and arsenic.
The disposal of these substances creates a genuine threat of pollution to our water, air and land. The EC has issued the WEEE Directive that aims to reduce the waste arising from electrical and electronic equipment.
The WEEE Directive sets targets that 65% of IT equipment must be recycled.
By using eDR Europe’s services, your organisation can provide demonstrable compliance to the WEEE Directive.
