Electrão's work with e-waste

Since 2005, we have been one of the driving forces behind recycling in Portugal. All the work we do ensures that electrical equipment is collected, reused or properly treated when it reaches the end of its useful life. Through recycling, we avoid polluting the environment and extracting new finite raw materials, contributing to a more circular economy.

We also promote more sustainable lifestyles, seeking to prevent waste through awareness-raising campaigns and donation and reuse projects.

These are the results we achieved last year:

Collection
27 693 tons

of used electrical equipment collected

Reuse
1 162 tons

of electrical equipment reused

Treatment
4 895 tons

of hazardous components removed
