Lab Equipment
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, only 28% of disposed electronics are collected for recycling—the rest ends up in landfills. Lab equipment that is not recycled properly can pose dangerous risks to people and the environment since lab equipment that has not been recycled or disposed of properly has the risk of containing harmful chemicals.
Fact
Recycling raw materials from end-to-life electronics is the most effective solution to the growing e-waste problem. Most electronics devices contain a variety of materials, including metals that can be recovered for future uses.
