Objective:

The world is facing a tsunami of e-waste. In 2019, 7m tonnes of screens and monitors were disposed of (UN), equivalent to €3bn of valuable commodities including CRMs if recycled properly. FPD Recycling, led by an experienced team of innovators, offers the CircularPro- a deep tech solution with intelligent automation and robust AI technologies to disrupt the Flat Panel Display (FPD) recycling industry and beyond. It will capture both reuasable components and CRMs for onward remanufacturing, while managing toxic materials. CircularPro promotes CRM recovery and reuse by certifying carbon credits based on reduced emissions and capturing data insights. Our innovation is a first-to-market holistic solution, creating a circular economy for FPDs and recyclers. We offer CircularPro on a ‘Technology-asa-Service’ model, realizing new and sustainable income streams for recyclers. It’s time to look at e-waste as a source of valuable materials and to capture its circularity with CircularPro.
