Electrorecycling

What Electrorecycling does

Electrorecycling, S.A. is a Spanish regulated waste management company founded in 2004, specializing in the logistics and valorization (recovery/treatment) of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE / RAEE). Operating from a single authorized treatment facility in El Pont de Vilomara i Rocafort (Barcelona), Catalonia, the company is registered as an authorized waste manager (gestor de residus autoritzat) by the Agència de Residus de Catalunya under authorization E-860.04 / NIMA 0800452088 — a regulatory prerequisite for legally valorizing WEEE in the region. The company treats ten or more WEEE categories under one roof, including large household appliances (radiators with oil, washing machines, air conditioners), small household appliances, IT and telecommunications equipment, consumer electronics (including photovoltaic panels and monitors/TVs), LED lighting, electric tools, toys/leisure equipment, medical devices, monitoring and control tools, and vending machines.

The company's technology stack is built around conventional industrial WEEE treatment operations — collection, sorting, valorization, and processing — applying "best available techniques" (millors tècniques disponibles). It is differentiated primarily through regulatory credentials rather than proprietary technology: WEEELABEX certification (2024-2026) for processing of electrical/electronic equipment, transport and logistics of flat screens and cooling appliances, alongside ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environmental), and ISO 45001 (occupational health and safety) certifications from AENOR. Since 2004, Electrorecycling reports having treated more than 248,000 tonnes of WEEE and, since 2023, more than 90 tonnes of CO2 emissions savings.

Electrorecycling operates a direct B2B contract-based service model, selling valorization and treatment services to waste producers, distributors, municipalities, and producer responsibility organizations. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales — customers reach the company via phone, email, and a website contact form — and its stated objective is to become a European reference in WEEE management. The company displays affiliations with major Spanish environmental services operators FCC Ámbito and Urbaser, and metal recycler Indumetal. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated on a contract basis, consistent with regulated industrial waste services. Marketing is limited to a multilingual corporate website (Catalan/Spanish/English) and a LinkedIn page; the company does not operate consumer-facing or self-serve channels.
