Public Campaign - Social media

Description: Through our social media channels (website, Instagram and Facebook), we want to launch an awareness campaign on the avoidance and correct disposal of e-waste. Together with Joujou GmbH (Bistro, Bio Bake Manufactory and Bazar), we will provide a collection point for e-waste during the campaign period. We want to make people aware of the importance of disposing of e-waste properly and returning it to the recycling cycle.

E-waste that is disposed of incorrectly or old appliances that gather dust at home are lost raw materials. With our information campaign, we want to draw attention to the importance of recycling and the reuse of raw materials. The collection point offers a good and easy way to dispose of your used small electrical appliances (Laptops, Smartphones, tablets, mobile phones, cables or other small household appliances, ...) correctly.
