Recycling to reduce electronic waste (e-waste)
Since our inception in 1921, our ambition has always been to create quality, durable products that last for years.
When your devices reach the end of their long life, they can still be put to good use. Recycling does depend on local facilities meeting WEEE standards and users making sure their devices go to the right place. You can often find collection points in retailers, town and city waste sites or online.
Recycling in Europe
Our recycling solutions are in line with the regulatory requirements of WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive 2012/19/EU, including labelling and return obligations. Users can hand in their Braun devices at our retail partners, Braun service centers or directly at a local recycling facility to enable the reprocessing of the recyclable metal elements.
Recycling outside of Europe
Recycling schemes differ across the globe given different country regulations and infastructure. With our commitment to reduce the overall impact of an electronic device across its life, we have started to seek out partnerships with the relevant recycling experts beyond Europe.
