Environmental Issues

After your equipment has gone through our testing process we decide whether that item should be sold, recycled or environmentally scrapped. At PC Disposals we have adopted the best possible practices in the Environmental disposal of un-saleable IT equipment. These are in accordance with the following EU directives

• WEEE - Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive
• RoHS - Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive

The European Commission has adopted these two proposals for the recovery of waste equipment and the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. The proposed Directives are designed to tackle the fast increasing waste stream of electrical and electronic equipment and complements European Union measures on landfill and incineration of waste.

For the latest on the WEEE directive please see our News section.
