Electrical and electronic equipment s

The demand for electronic products is rising, driven by the growth of digital services, connected devices, data infrastructures, and electrified systems. Their production relies on energy-intensive processes and critical raw materials such as rare earth elements, lithium, cobalt, and copper. The strategy aims to enhance transparency and environmental performance throughout the product lifecycle. It includes environmental declarations and their verification, improved lifecycle inventories to support robust lifecycle analysis and eco-design, assessment of material criticality, and advanced recovery techniques for raw materials from waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
