Two UK-based technology companies are collaborating with a Nigerian supplier to innovate the recycling process of electric vehicle batteries at their end of life.

In2tec Ltd has supported a call to the European Commission by an environmental coalition to reinforce the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive.

In2tec Ltd brings circularity to the electronics industry, having developed the solution for the removal and reuse of electronic components from Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBAs).

Ewaste is one of the fastest-growing waste streams in the world. When electrical products and electronic equipment reach the end of their usable life they will often be sent to landfill, where they are expected to rot away and be forgotten.

A UK company is changing the way manufacturers produce conventional electronics, through sustainable production techniques that addresses the way electronics are currently recycled.

In2tec, a UK sustainable electronics pioneer, believes it has the solution to provide for a higher level of integration of electronics – electronic and mechanical components, sensors, LEDs, printed harnesses, and connectors – in a single unit than is currently available in the industry.

A UK sustainable electronics pioneer has unveiled a new video to show how together we can combat the environmental insufficiencies that plague the electronics industry.
