Waste electrical and electronic equipment.
A huge source of raw materials.

REMONDIS processes waste electrical and electronic equipment in modern dismantling centres.

In Germany, more than a million pieces of waste electrical and electronic equipment are thrown away every year. Everything is there – from fridges to drills. Large pieces of equipment are disposed of via the bulky waste collection service, whilst smaller pieces of equipment can be handed in at municipal recycling centres. Furthermore, retailers selling electrical and electronic equipment are obliged by law to take back waste equipment. They then commission a specialist, such as REMONDIS, to pick the equipment up from their premises.

What does REMONDIS do with waste electrical and electronic equipment?

We process broken or unwanted pieces of waste electrical and electronic equipment in modern dismantling centres by breaking them up into smaller pieces and carefully separating the raw materials – such as plastics, glass, timber, copper and silver – strictly according to type. Any hazardous materials are removed straight away and disposed of safely.
