The management of IT equipment and IT asset disposition (ITAD) must be carried out in a cost-effective and safe manner for both employees and the environment, while ensuring information security.
Additionally, the control of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and Plastics derived from electronic devices (e-Plastics) is one of the greatest challenges for sustainable development. It has implications throughout its lifecycle for manufacturers, distributors, rental companies, users, recyclers, waste managers, and citizens.
The R2 Standard is the international benchmark for environmental, health, safety, and regulatory requirements in the electronics recycling and recovery industry.
The new R2v3 version has been recognized by ANSI as an American National Standard for responsible reuse and recycling of electronic devices. Certification is carried out through Accredited Certification Bodies.
