R2 Certification

R2 Certifications confirm to customers that the recycling operations are safe for the environment.

We also make sure that the employees performing these operations are safe in every way possible.

What is R2 Certification?

Standards and R2 certification are continuous improvements. This provides the road map for sustainable management of electronics.

Implementing them might be a challenge, but it is a learning experience

This ensures that all businesses are secure, sustainable and provides specific purposes for micromanaging any risks we might face.

Recycle Technologies continues to adopt the latest and robust legislation to make our customers' lives easier.

Our recycling facility was the first to become R2 V3 certified.

This ensures that we are a competent, qualified, and responsible e-waste recycler in the region.

Customers will be happy to know that Recycle Technologies is R2 V3 certified.

The R2:2013 standard is a leading global recycling certification for electronics reuse and recycling.

This r2  certification was created to certify recyclers and has all the guidelines set by EPA.

The main goal of this standard is to protect the people, environment, data and preserve resources.

The update of the R2:2013 standard is an amazing addition to recyclers. Some key changes include:

For many businesses data protection is the main concern.

The new version incorporates data protection guidelines and makes it clearer to understand what is required when handling devices that contain data.

The R2 v3 has strengthened data controls that ensure the quality and reuse of devices.

It also reinforces the testing and repairing of these devices.

Does the R2 Certification Strengthen Requirements?

The new update of the standard helps us strengthen the requirements. This will help reduce the risk and forbearing consequences.

It will enable us to innovate processes and methods to achieve sustainability at every level.

This ensures that the flow of material through downstream vendors is met.

By strengthening the foundation, you expect tighter controls over data protection, environmental health, and safety concerns.

What Does R2 Certification Bring to the Table?

The R2 V3 recycling certification recognizes that different facilities have different specialities.

For that reason, the standard bifurcates into two core tiers. These are Core Requirements and Process Requirements.

This brings clarity to customers about the object of an R2-certified recycling facility or center.

For small and startup facilities R2 V3 is more affordable and achievable.

The R2 certification enables us to:

  • Safe and effective recovery of electronic equipment and materials.
  • Reuse of electronic equipment and materials
  • Protects downstream chain of recycling
  • Minimized health and environmental risks
