Discarded electricals are one of the fastest growing sources of waste – and a big threat to the environment and human health. Recycling old electronics is better for the planet and your pocket, putting valuable resources back into the economy.
Recycling old unwanted electricals uses less energy and creates less waste than making new products.
Precious materials in old electrical items can be recycled into life-saving equipment, bicycles – and even new electricals.
We’re hoarding billions of pounds worth of electricals that we could be reselling or passing on – imagine the extra cash and shelf space.
Recycling all our old unwanted electricals would create hundreds of new jobs in electrical reuse and recycling.
