We offer responsible closed loop products and services to efficiently manage all battery types and e-waste that should never reach landfills or waterways for many obvious benefits. One of our core values is to use an incentive based model when possible, rewarding recycling participants with payouts for valued material and offering the lowest cost option for properly recycling non-valued material. All of our US based downstream recyclers and refineries are certified Industry leaders never shipping overseas as part of our zero landfill policy.

R2v3 certification, or Responsible Recycling Version 3, is the latest iteration of the R2 standard. Established by SERI (Sustainable Electronics Recycling International), it sets forth guidelines for the safe and sustainable recycling of electronic waste.
Environmental Impact: With millions of tons of e-waste generated annually, there’s a pressing need for responsible disposal. R2v3 ensures that recyclers adhere to best practices, minimizing environmental harm.
Data Security: The certification mandates strict data destruction protocols, ensuring that sensitive information doesn’t fall into the wrong hands.
Health & Safety: R2v3 places a significant emphasis on worker safety, ensuring that recycling processes don’t jeopardize human health.
Contracting with an electronics recycler that is R2V3 Certified means peace of mind in knowing that your company’s IT assets, batteries, bulbs and ballasts are being managed by a recycler that has demonstrated they have a system in place to properly handle materials according to the R2V3 Standard.
