Our process
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
Every device that comes through our Watford facility is sorted into one of three buckets. It's how we make sure nothing usable ends up wasted, and nothing dangerous ends up where it shouldn't.
See how sorting worksThe Bad
Stripped for parts
Devices that can't be made whole again are harvested for working components — RAM, drives, screens — to keep other kit alive.
The Ugly
Responsibly recycled
What's left is sent to our downstream WEEE partners under our Environment Agency permit. Materials recovered, nothing landfilled.
Why businesses trust us
Compliance you can prove. Sustainability you can report.
