Electronics - a fast-growing challenge

At Stena Recycling, we have over 25 years experience in creating customized recycling solutions for electronics. This wealth of experience combined with our wide range of recycling solutions means industry, commercial businesses and local authorities have all turned to us. From collection cages and containers to confidentiality services, transport and reports, we offer everything you need to transform your electronic waste into a valuable resource – in a safe, sustainable way.

Turning waste into valuable material

Electronics contain copper, aluminum, gold, plastic and other materials that can be recycled and used in new products. To ensure a high recovery and recycling rate of these materials, a number of high-tech processes interact efficiently. For example, did you know that mobile phones can contain up to 100 times more gold than ore from a gold mine!

Electronics also contain hazardous components that must be handled in the right way to protect the environment. You could say that we are detoxifying society by removing hazardous waste from electronics, such as PCBs, mercury and batteries.

Control over the entire process

It is important for us that you as a customer feel safe throughout the entire process – whether your material is being reused or recycled. From transport and recycling, right up to the moment the material becomes new products, you are in control – and every step comes with qualified documentation and quality assurance.

Electronics contain a lot of data and information – some of it sensitive. We track your material to its final destination, whether it becomes new raw material or is sent to landfill. We also provide data security protection, where IT equipment and digital memories are deleted or destroyed.

Quality new raw materials

The demand for pure raw materials to make new products is growing all the time. We offer a wide range of quality assured raw materials that are sold to selected partners around the world for the manufacturing of new products. These partners include steelworks, smelting plants, foundries, plastics and other manufacturers in over 30 countries.

In other words: In the right place, where needs and quality requirements exist, near or far.

Together, we close the loop and ensure that discarded products are recycled and become a useful resource for new products.
