Reuse electronics ensuring final recycling

Download brochure

Our mission is the transition to a collaborative and circular consumption of electronics

We bootstrap local and autonomous platforms for reusing electronics

 Open-Source software

Device Management System for reusing and refurbishing, erasing hard-drives, and diagnosing components.

Know more

 Global traceability

Tracking systems at component level that can provide global coverage by connecting with eReuse.org servers.

 Research & analytics

Global Open-Data Store with metrics e.g. the social impact of reusing, durability of components, and tracking.

 Base licenses for the commons

Base licenses and deed of assignment templates for transferring devices with the circular values of eReuse.org.

Community

We are a community of refurbishers, reuse advocates, social inclusion organizations, recycling companies, public administration, university service-learning programs, charity donation programs, and IT companies.

Refurbishers, like Solidança, use the software to prepare and manage devices to be traded or donated, ensuring giver's donation policy, and final disposal.
Each year 500 students from the Catalan Polytechnic University cooperate in repairing and installing free software to computers that are donated to NGOs.
The Barcelona government donates PC to schools and NGOs. The eReuse.org base licenses ensure their correct treatment and facilitate the NGOs and refurbishers to work with them.

Our main objectives

Share stories to communicate the social value of reuse and recycling.

Reduce the cost of refurbishing and reusing by developing open-data and open-source tools and services.

Develop open data of electronic components to compute circularity metrics, like the extended durability of devices.

Prevent illegal export of WEEE by promoting reuse quality standards.

Develop open data about reusing and recycling traceability to build confidence in donors and governments.

Promote electronic refurbishing and reusing by exchanging and creating new business models around circular economy.

Ensure reusing and recycling by providing traceability at component level.

Keep updated

Collaborate and join  

We welcome any initiative focused on refurbishing, reusing, and promoting Zero Waste on electronic equipment in general.

Reporting data

Open information is freedom. Report non-personal device metadata to evaluate product circularity, social impact, and appropriate recycling.

Enhance the resources

Share your skills and pick up a few new ones along the way by writing open-source code, testing, providing support, translating, among others.

Promote a local circuit

Circuits are communities that exchange devices. Empower them or create new ones using our know-how and tools.
