The increasing pressure of E-Waste on businesses

For companies, this is more than an environmental challenge. New rules are on the way, with stricter and more harmonized requirements for collection and e-waste recycling. Producer responsibility is expanding, too, with tougher expectations for take-back, recovery, and reporting.

At the same time, there’s a business upside. Smarter product design, greater repairability, and new circular services such as refurbishment, resale, and spare parts can reduce costs, manage risk, and open up new revenue streams.
