Electrical Recycling

Recovering valuable raw materials from waste electrical and electronic equipment

[AI-generated] Rare Ressources Electrical Waste Recycling Battery Cable Microship Circuit Board

Also known internationally as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment), it is one of the most complex material streams in recycling. It contains valuable materials that can be recovered through professional collection, sorting and processing, from metals and plastics to other recyclable components. At the same time, handling e-waste requires particular care: hazardous substances must be handled safely, fire risks minimised and legal requirements reliably met.

PreZero supports manufacturers, retailers, local authorities and other partners with solutions for the collection, logistics and recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment with the aim of securing raw materials and keeping materials in the circular economy.

From waste electrical and electronic equipment to secondary raw materials

PreZero collects waste electrical and electronic equipment and directs it to appropriate recycling and recovery processes. In the process, recyclable materials are separated, hazardous substances are treated professionally and valuable raw materials are recovered for further industrial applications.

In this way, e-waste becomes an important source of secondary raw material and valuable materials are kept in the cycle.

Professional recycling for all equipment categories:

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)

For example, IT equipment, monitors, small appliances and other electrical or electronic products.

Large Household Appliances

For example, washing machines, cookers, dishwashers, tumble dryers or ovens.

Refrigerators and Freezers

Appliances with specific requirements regarding dismantling, treatment of hazardous substances and material separation.

Take-back and Logistics Solutions

Support with organising take-back, collection, transport and handover to suitable recycling processes.

Safe management of complex material flows

Waste electrical and electronic equipment contains not only valuable raw materials but also components that require specific safety and environmental standards. These include, for example, refrigerants, mercury, batteries, plastics and other components containing hazardous substances.

Proper processes reduce risks and prepare materials so that they can be recycled to the highest possible standard. In this way, PreZero helps to conserve natural resources, reduce dependence on primary raw materials and promote stable secondary raw material cycles.

As an integrated recycling partner, PreZero supports various stakeholders along the value chain, from manufacturers and distributors to retailers and local authority partners.

The focus is on efficient take-back structures, reliable logistics and the professional recycling of collected waste electrical and electronic equipment. This enables legal requirements, operational processes and sustainability targets to be aligned.

Recovering electronic waste - Securing raw materials

PreZero provides a reliable recycling pathway for waste electrical and electronic equipment: from collection and sorting through to transfer to suitable recycling processes. In the process, valuable materials are recovered, risks are reduced and secondary raw materials are prepared for further applications.

In this way, e-waste becomes a usable source of raw materials – for businesses, retailers and local authorities.

Depending on the market and availability, PreZero supports the collection and recycling of various types of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).

These include, for example, large household appliances, refrigerators and freezers, IT and display equipment, small appliances, and other electrical and electronic products.

Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) contains valuable raw materials, but also components that require specific safety and environmental standards.

Proper recycling helps to handle hazardous substances safely, reduce fire risks and recover materials for further recycling and production processes.

Electrical waste recycling enables materials such as metals, plastics and other recyclable materials to be recovered.

These secondary raw materials can be reused and help to conserve primary raw materials, reduce dependence on supply chains and strengthen material cycles.

The solutions are aimed at manufacturers, distributors, retailers, industrial companies and local authority partners who wish to collect waste electrical and electronic equipment safely, recycle it in accordance with the law and keep valuable raw materials in the circular economy.
