Everything you need to know about the WEEE Directive

The WEEE Directive addresses the growing problem of electronic waste by promoting recycling, reuse, and the recovery of valuable materials like gold and platinum from old electronics. It applies to businesses involved in manufacturing, importing, selling, or reselling electrical and electronic equipment, requiring them to ensure proper disposal and recycling of waste electronics. Non-compliance can lead to fines and damage to a company’s reputation.
