Make a difference as a Recupel collector

The collection and processing of used electricals – become an authorised Recupel partner! 

Recupel works with approved partners for the collection, sorting for reuse and processing of household and professional* waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). We have a network of companies who collect these appliances for reuse or processing, as well as a network of companies for the processing part. These partners choose to work with Recupel for the financial rewards it provides. 

Recently, these financial rewards were further improved. This provides an extra incentive for partner companies to work with Recupel in handling the growing stream of electrical waste in both a high-quality and legally sound manner. In addition, thanks to this improvement, electrical waste collection and processing as a business activity has become more and more profitable
