Why partner with EARN?

Over 20 Years of Experience

EARN’s shareholders and recycling partners, who have worked in the waste electrical equipment take-back and recycling sector since the 1990s, were heavily involved in the design of the original EC WEEE Directive and its implementation. In 2003, our partners joined forces and formed a network to fulfil the requirements with one core solution, both across Europe and nationally, as EARN Elektroaltgeräte Service GmbH. You will benefit from over 20 years' expertise of managed waste electrical equipment take-back, recycling, registration and compliance reporting solutions.

Europe-Wide Take-Back

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is the cornerstone of European waste Directives and Regulations. Manufacturers and importers (also known as 'producers') must offer suitable solutions to take back and recycle their products when they become waste.

EARN guarantees country-specific and bespoke managed take-back and recycling of waste equipment and industrial batteries on behalf of manufacturers and importers. How do we do this? It's all thanks to our pan-European network of recycling companies.

One-Stop Full Service

We assist you, as the producer, in fulfilling all compliance requirements under European and rest-of-world (ROW) EPR Regulations for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)/E-Waste, Batteries, Packaging and Textiles. Through our partner recycling network, we can also organise for your WEEE and industrial batteries to be taken back and recycled using best available processing technologies.
