The UK Government has pledged to support the transition from a throwaway society to a circular economy, aiming to eliminate waste and pollution by keeping resources in use for as long as possible. Environment Secretary Steve Reed announced the formation of a Circular Economy Taskforce to tackle stagnating recycling rates and landfill. Emma Armstrong, Sustainable Electronics Ambassador at In2tec, welcomed the taskforce, emphasizing the need to reduce waste and conserve resources such as rare earth elements and metals. In2tec’s technologies, ReUSE and ReCYCLE, enable the removal and reuse of components from electronic waste, reducing the environmental impact of production and disposal. Armstrong advocates for sustainability in design, allowing for the creation of modular and disassemblable products that can be easily repaired and reused.

In2tec’s technologies can help achieve this goal, making a significant impact on the environment and the economy.
