Creating a sustainability impact goes beyond recycling

While the Circular Economy is gaining recognition among people, companies, and governments, practical actions are still often limited to recycling generated waste. In Peru, only 7% of what is generated receives formal treatment — the rest waits in a warehouse or ends up in an informal dump site. This is the guide that summarizes what every management team should know before deciding what to do with that equipment.

The acronym sounds technical, but the concept is simple

What is e-waste?

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) covers all equipment that runs on electricity or batteries and that, once it reaches the end of its useful life or stops working, becomes waste requiring specialized handling — it cannot be treated as ordinary trash.

The reason is twofold: on one hand, it contains substances that can be hazardous if disposed of improperly; on the other, it contains valuable materials that are lost if no one recovers them. That combination is exactly what makes its management both a legal obligation and a business opportunity.

You probably already have some in your company on every desk, office, meeting room, or warehouse

In Peru, this management is regulated by Supreme Decree N.° 009-2019-MINAM, which sets out the obligations for a more efficient environmental management system.

ACTUAL SCOPE

What types of e-waste do we collect?

Peruvian regulation recognizes 11 categories of electrical and electronic equipment. We group them into 5 blocks so it's easy to identify what your company is generating today — click to learn more.

Responsibility is shared, and the first step is yours.

Protecting the environment no longer depends solely on citizens or the State: companies, as generators of e-waste, have an active and measurable role to play. Circular Solutions supports you through every step of that path, from diagnosis to final certification.
