Sims Recycling Solutions, the global leader in electronics reuse and recycling
released an infographic to help businesses and consumers understand the process
that occurs after e-waste is dropped off for disposal. An outline of collection
options are also provided along with tips for business executives looking to
dispose of corporate electronic devices safely and responsibly. 


As global sales of electronics steadily rise, so does the amount of devices that
are replaced every year making electronics the fastest growing waste stream.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as of 2009 only eight
percent of cell phones and 25 percent of televisions and computers in
end-of-life stages were recycled.


"While the industry has been around for years now, many are still unfamiliar
with the e-recycling process and -- given no incentive to recycle -- are in no
rush to go out of their way to do research," stated Steve Skurnac, president of
Sims Recycling Solutions. "Our goal was to provide a visually stimulating
outline of the recycling process to provide consumers and businesses with a
better understanding of what happens to materials once responsibly recycled."


Last year, Sims Recycling Solutions recycled enough copper to make 194 statues
of liberty and enough gold from cellphones to make almost 800 Olympic gold
medals. Offering nationwide coverage, Sims can help lower logistic costs and
minimize overhead and handling for businesses. Sims can also provide documented
procedures -- including support for corporate compliance programs -- and ensure
all data is securely removed and destroyed. Visit Sims Recycling Solutions'
