Did you know that globally last year, the total amount of electronic waste reached 53.6 million metric tonnes? With such rapid advances in technology and endless new innovative products released every year, electronic waste will quickly become one of the fastest growing waste streams in the world.

Circularity can be built into products right at the design phase, ensuring they can be repaired, re-used, recycled or returned – keeping them out of landfill, and keeping our resources in the environment.
