Slate Peak Asset Recovery
How to keep non-recoverable technology out of landfills with a documented downstream path.
Reuse what is practical first
Extending the useful life of secure, functional equipment can preserve more value and avoid unnecessary material processing.
Recycle what cannot be recovered
Non-reusable electronics should be separated and directed to downstream processors appropriate to the material and required handling.
Ask where material goes
A responsible program evaluates downstream partners, prohibited practices, records, and final disposition rather than assuming every recycler provides the same controls.
