Electrical and Electronic waste (WEEE) is the fastest growing form of waste in the EU today. It produced approximately 9 million tonnes in 2005 and this figure is expected to rise to 12.3 million tonnes by 2020. Ireland has embraced the Directive so much so that in 2008 we collected over 9.5kg of electrical waste per person – more than double the EU target of 4kg per person! Ratcliffe continues to invest in its fleet and collection equipment stock to cater for the growth in WEEE collection and recycling and work with industry and householders to continue the reduction of waste to landfill.
