The aged and nonfunctional electronic devices (such as broken telephones, cordless phones, air conditioners, televisions, refrigerators, washing machines, mobile phones, etc.) are referred to as e-waste. Although these e-wastes contain precious materials like aluminum, copper, gold, palladium, and silver, they also comprise hazardous substances like cadmium, lead, and mercury. Recycling e-waste is a considerate approach, as disposing of it in landfills can lead to toxic emissions and present significant health and environmental risks.

• Follow the guidelines in our catalogues for appropriate management of end-of-life equipment.
• Ensure that your electronic products are recycled exclusively by authorized recyclers/dismantlers.
• Refer to your closest Collection Point for proper disposal of products that have reached their end-of-life.
• Drop off used accessories, devices, batteries, or any other components at the nearest Collection Point.
• Sort packaging materials from electronic products according to secure waste disposal alternatives.
• Safeguard the glass surface of any electronic product to prevent breakage.

Don'ts

• Do not disassemble electronic devices yourself.
• Do not dispose of electronic products in bins marked with a 'Do Not Dispose' sign.
• Do not sell or donate e-waste to informal and unorganized sectors such as local scrap dealers/rag pickers.
• Do not throw away electronic waste in municipal waste, as they will eventually end up in landfills.
