In today’s throwaway society, waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) poses one of the world’s biggest recycling problems. Despite stringent regulations, more than 2 million tonnes of WEEE are produced and discarded every year, in the UK alone. But within every piece of ‘redundant’ equipment lie a number of high-value component parts that – in line with the waste hierarchy – should be liberated, segregated and recycled. It doesn’t just make environmental sense – this methodology can yield impressive business revenue too.
Our e-waste shredders are purposefully engineered to liberate the high-value recyclates within redundant equipment, with complete DIN-level compliance. Four shaft shredding technology with configurable screens guarantees a homogenous particle size of anything between 15-100mm, depending on your specification. Particle consistency = maximum revenue.
Invest in a WEEE shredder with low capital outlay, from only £50 per day, and process WEEE from as little as 50p per unit.
We have small machines designed to securely destroy hard drives and mobile phones, through to 22 tonne equipment capable of shredding washing machines and extreme WEEE scrap.
We’ve thought about the features our scrap and WEEE recyclers need, including a rugged cutting system, foreign object protection, ease of operation and maintenance, process flexibility, high machine availability, impressive throughputs, operator safety and wellbeing, an energy-saving drive concept, low noise and dust generation, and special bearings/shaft seals for long-term durability.
We know seeing is believing, so we offer free trials at our North Yorkshire HQ, enabling you to test our electronic shredding abilities using your own materials.
