Wide-ranging benefits for signatories to the SWICO Recycling Convention
You will enjoy the following benefits as a Convention signatory:
- You make a clear statement that your company disposes of used equipment professionally, and therefore assumes social and environmental responsibility.

- SWICO Recycling calculates the Advance Recycling Fee (ARF) for the equipment in your sales range.
- You have a strong representation of your interests in response to environmental associations' demands relating to "poisonous electronic waste".
- You are part of an international network: SWICO Recycling is a participant of the WEEE Forum, a Europe-wide committee overseeing 41 recycling systems and 24 countries. The function of the WEEE Forum consists of establishing quality standards. This guarantees a link to European lawmaking and developments in recycling.
