Integrating media destruction into CSR
When working with a specialist in IT media destruction, you opt for an eco-responsible solution. The destruction process continues beyond the shredding of various media. As part of the circular economy, the professional collaborates with approved recycling companies to encourage the reuse of certain materials.
There are three stages to WEEE recycling:
SORT
Waste is sorted by recycling experts who finely sort and group all products. They will then be reused, used for external outlets or sent to shredders for materials recovery.
crushing
The various plastics that make up WEEE are either brominated to prevent ignition or composed of noble metals, precious metals and strategic metals. They are sent to outlets to be recovered and recycled as secondary raw materials. They pass through specific shredders and separators for these flows.
REEMPLOYMENT
Finally, the materials are ready to be resold for a second life and re-used.
