Recycling Electrical Waste (WEEE) in Industrial Manufacturing

Sustainability these days isn’t just a buzzword - it’s a business necessity. One of the biggest challenges faced by large-scale manufacturers is how to responsibly and legally dispose of electrical waste, often referred to as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment).

At GSFM, we understand that managing WEEE in an industrial setting can be complex. That’s why we provide tailored electrical waste recycling solutions designed specifically for manufacturers—ensuring full compliance with WEEE regulations while supporting your environmental goals.

What is WEEE and Why Does It Matter?

WEEE refers to end-of-life electrical and electronic equipment—from production line machinery and control panels to IT equipment and lighting. Under UK law, manufacturers have a legal duty to dispose of this waste in line with WEEE compliance regulations.

Failing to do so can lead to environmental harm and heavy fines, not to mention damage to your business reputation. That’s where GSFM steps in.

GSFM specialises in bespoke waste management solutions for industrial and manufacturing clients across the UK. We work closely with each client to design an electrical waste recycling service that suits your operation, with services that include:

Our aim is to remove the hassle from electrical waste disposal, so you can focus on what you do best—manufacturing.
