Recycling metals, plastics, glass and other materials is vital for future worldwide sustainability. Using recycled materials such as ferrous metal in production is more energy efficient, results in a lower carbon footprint and helps preserve dwindling resources.
Sims Recycling Solutions’ advanced recovery techniques ensure that hazardous substances such as lead and CFCs found in redundant electrical and electronic equipment such as computers, monitors and refrigerators are dealt with safely. This not only prevents pollutants harming the environment but enables manufactures, suppliers and end users to meet their legislative obligations for disposal of end of life appliances.
