CIRCULAR PLATFORM FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES

SENS ERECYCLING RECYCLING 2022

Electrical devices often become redundant due to improved technologies in the market. As a result, they either end up in the cellar, or if they’ve broken down, thrown away even when they only need minor repairs. SENS eRecycling, on a mission to change the fate of these devices, gives end users a platform to repair, recycle or resell these items, thus increasing the lifecycle of these products. Thanks to the platform, SENS eRecycling can analyze customer behavior and come up with new services to make this economy even more sustainable.

"The platform connects us directly to the end-consumers. This enables us to raise awareness at their level and help increase the useful life of these devices."

CHALLENGE

MOTIVATING PEOPLE TO CONSUME IN AN ECO-FRIENDLY WAY

This isn’t SENS eRecycling’s first project when it comes to environment protection in Switzerland. It has been continuously working for sustainable recycling of disused electrical and electronic appliances as well as lamps, lighting equipment and photovoltaic systems. However, this is the first time they have properly engaged the end-user. And it is their new platform that has allowed them to reach more and more people, helping educate the masses when it comes to using electrical appliances in a resource-saving manner.

Sometimes it is not easy to determine what to do with an appliance. For instance, does one get rid of a freezer one does not need? Sell or recycle it? The decision isn’t always easy. SENS eRecycling platform provides users with guidance on whether selling, recycling, or repairing the equipment makes the most sense.
