Product stewardship affects much more than design and creation. More than 20 states are reviewing e-waste legislation affecting manufacturers. Programs for both consumers and corporate entities, promoting the capability of easily disposing of used electronics or technology, is in demand. In fact, some government/corporate consumers validate that an organization has a take-back program or recycling effort prior to engagement as a vendor. There are several existing and proposed legislative models to address consumer electronics, however, the two most common are the Advanced Recovery Fee (ARF) in California, and the Electronics Producer Responsibility (EPR) program, in Maine and several other states. Unless a national standard is implemented through legislation or other means, OEMs will have to deal with a patchwork system throughout the U.S. 

Whether you’re in a state with an Advanced Recovery Fee, or an Electronics Producer Responsibility model, or where no rules exist, Hesstech will provide a cost-effective way of collecting, processing and recycling decommissioned consumer electronics and IT technology. Hesstech has passed a number of major audits indicating surety with respect to domestic and international environmental and security compliance. Full asset tracking and reporting is available in detail creating a downstream log of all recycling activities. The industry leading STAR System enables full visibility into the process of asset reuse, remarketing, and disposal. Hesstech does not export non-working equipment or landfill, and applies appropriate security measures or destruction to the evaluated asset.
