Why Recycle?

WEEE has been introduced to increase the recycling and/or re-use of electrical and electric equipment and regulate the disposal of hazardous substances found in many electrical products. By recycling we can reduce the landfill usage and protect ourselves and the world from health and environmental risks. Jadestone Recycling Ltd is an Island company striving to keep the South Coast as beautiful as it already is. Please recycle!!!!

 

 

FAQs

Do Jadestone handle domestic waste?

Yes, but we have to make a charge. Domestic waste can normally be recycled at the local civic amenity facility, but some items, for example commercial fridges used by a householder, may not be accepted. Also, if you need your computer hard disk destroyed we offer that service.

Is mercury released from your lamp collection process?

No, all the fluorescent tubes are bulked and stored into a separate waste stream and sent to a central recycling facility. No mercury is released during our process.

When you recycle computers is there a risk that our data can be seen by others?

No, all the hard drives in computers we receive are electrically degaussed then physically crushed. There is no risk of your data being seen by anyone else. We are registered to ISO standard 27001: Information security and follow rigid procedures with regards to the safety of your data.

What are WEEE regulations?

These regulations require that all waste electrical items be stored and treated separately to other waste streams to ensure maximum re-use and recycling. Domestic electrical waste can normally be recycled at your local civic amenity facility. Jadestone deals primarily with local authorities, schools, NHS trusts and companies to ensure all electrical waste is correctly disposed of and that our customers meet and exceed all the relevant legislations and regulations.
