E-waste Management

Introduction:

Electronic waste, or e-waste, is a term for electronic products that have become unwanted, non-working or obsolete, and have essentially reached the end of their useful life.

As per E-waste Management Rule 2016, the E waste defined as ‘electrical and electronic equipment, whole or in part discarded as waste by the consumer or bulk consumer as well as rejects from manufacturing, refurbishment and repair processes.

E-waste contains many valuable, recoverable materials such as aluminum, copper, gold, silver, plastics, and ferrous metals. In order to conserve natural resources and the energy needed to produce new electronic equipment from virgin resources, electronic equipment can be refurbished, reused, and recycled instead of being land filled.

E-waste also contains toxic and hazardous materials including mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium, chromium, and chemical flame retardants, which have the potential to leach into our soil and water.

We have partnered with E waste Solutions registered with Haryana State Pollution Control Board for management and dismantling/ recycling of all our e-waste.

• As a part of agreement, E waste Solutions will collect all our E-waste generated from PAN India and dismantle the same at their plant at Industrial area 1A, Industrial Estate, Sector 6, Faridabad, Haryana – 121006
• E waste Solutions, our e-waste management partner is having all authorization related e-waste dismantling from HSPCB/CPCB and having all connects related to Air/Water/Hazardous waste. They have capacity of 1000 MT per annum.
• Keeping in view our sales volume and generation of e-waste as per our future e-waste targets and our expansion plan we have decided to follow these mechanisms in our organization for collection of e-waste.

Benefit of recycling of E-waste:

• E-waste contains many valuable, recoverable materials such as aluminum, copper, gold, silver, plastics, and ferrous metals. In order to conserve natural resources and the energy needed to produce new electronic equipment from virgin resources, electronic equipment can be refurbished, reused, and recycled instead of being dumped.
• E-waste also contains toxic and hazardous materials including mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium, chromium, and chemical flame retardants, which have the potential to leach into our soil and water.
• Protects your surroundings- Safe recycling of outdated electronics promotes sound management of toxic chemicals such as lead and mercury.
• Conserves natural resources– Recycling recovers valuable materials from old electronics that can be used to make new products. As a result, we save energy, reduce pollution, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and save resources by extracting fewer raw materials from the earth.
• Helps others– Donating your used electronics benefits your community by passing on ready-to-use or refurbished equipment to those who need it.
• Saves landfill space– E-waste is a growing waste stream. By recycling these items, landfill space is conserved.
