PEPs are everyday items infused with electronic components, ranging from smart textiles to LED shoes. These products are all around us, but their impact on e-waste management is often underestimated.
Our aim is to shed light on the challenges and opportunities related to PEPs. We will provide information on how they fit into the broader context of electronic waste and the circular economy.
StEP's post will serve as an educational resource, sharing insights into the unique recycling challenges posed by PEPs and the need for responsible disposal.
On International E-waste Day, we will share this informative post to engage our audience and raise awareness about the importance of addressing PEPs in the world of electronic waste.
We look forward to contributing to this global initiative and working together to promote sustainable e-waste practices. Stay tuned for our PEP-focused content on this important day!

Come and find out by yourself! You are welcome to visit the premises of DRZ, and learn about what happens here: the environmental and social benefits of treating 6 tons of old electric and/or electronic appliances per workday, with formerly long-term unemployed persons who face difficulties in finding an appropriate new job on the regular labour market.
Most of this huge amount of e-waste is dismantled manually, for recycling, but some devices can still be re-used, after some repair steps, and particularly appealing parts even make really beautiful new design products.
