Electronic Recycling Australia

Electronic Recycling Australia We offer recycling of e-waste at our Adelaide hub. Sales of refurbished electronic goods also available. What is E-Waste?

We are backed by Bedford, so in addition to contributing to the circular economy, you will be supporting jobs for people with disability. Electronics Recycling Australia (ERA) is Adelaide's leading electronic recycling facility who offer a responsible way to recycle electronics achieving real environmental and social outcomes for South Australians. Electronic devices today are ubiquitous: smartpho

nes, computers, TVs, printers and gaming consoles, to name a few, are used every day in our homes and businesses. With advances in technology these same devices are soon superseded. Electronic equipment and other devices when no longer wanted have become a problem and so are called e-waste. What is electronics recycling or e-cycling? Until recently most electronics have ended in conventional waste management and landfill. However the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme is ensuring that importers and manufacturers recycle electronic equipment at no cost to the consumer. This is where e-cycling is doing something positive for the environment by diverting electronic equipment and other devices from landfill avoiding unnecessary waste and recovering valuable resources before they become an e-waste problem. To achieve this ERA offers a unique two tiered approach of reuse and recycle. Reuse for the community

Reusing technology has significant benefits to the environment not only reducing waste but also a smaller carbon footprint, as it requires energy to recycle materials. Consequently ERA identify technology that is still usable and make it available for sale at low cost. ERA is also participant in the Microsoft Refurbisher program meaning we can also offer low-cost computers with genuine Microsoft software for students and people with low incomes. Safe and effective e-recycling

ERA sorts and dismantles all electronic devices in our factory undercover and has deployed internationally recognised standards for environmental protection and work place safety. Using these standards ERA achieves a very high standard and can recover over 95% of usable materials diverting it from landfill. ERA does not reprocess any potentially hazardous materials on-site. Electronic equipment is dismantled and sorted into their different material categories (metal, glass, printed circuit boards and plastic). This is then shipped safely to environmentally responsible processors that ERA have assessed to provide the best environmental outcome.

Thank you for supporting a year of real impact in 2025 ♻️

As 2025 comes to a close, we want to thank our partners, customers and community for standing with us to create positive environmental and social impact.

This year we, and co-located Bounce Back Mattress Recycling, continued to demonstrate what is possible when a circular economy model puts both environmental and social outcomes first.

💚 Social impact in 2025
Together, we supported 75 jobs, including 50 roles for people with disability, delivering 109,470 hours of meaningful employment across our recycling operations. These roles create opportunity, build skills and support inclusive workplaces where everyone can contribute.

♻️ Environmental impact in 2025
- 3.6 million kg of e-waste diverted from landfill;
- 64.26 million kg of CO₂ emissions prevented;
- Valuable materials recovered and returned to use, including glass, cardboard, plastics and gas; - Bounce Back recycled 23,000 mattresses, achieving up to 90% material recovery and preventing toxic materials from entering landfill.

🔁 Extending the life of electronics
Keeping products in use is central to our circular approach:
• 2,400+ electronic items refurbished and sold, including calculators, mobile phones, tablets, laptops, desktop computers, monitors and components;
• 400+ refurbished items donated to Backpacks 4 SA Kids INC., supporting children and families with access to essential technology.

🎓 Education and community engagement
In 2025, our Ottoway recycling hub became a place of learning and connection:
• 68 recycling hub tours delivered to 1,456 students and 208 teachers, and 189 people from community and business groups;
• Delivered a hands-on e-waste education project with Green Industries SA, Greenwith Primary School and Norwood Primary School, engaging 120 project teams and 340 students;
• Hosted 7 Saturday recycling drop-off days, combining community recycling with refurbished e-waste sales.

None of this would be possible without the support of the South Australian community. Every item recycled, every partnership formed and every choice to work with us has helped create a more inclusive economy and a more sustainable future.

Thank you for being part of the impact in 2025. We look forward to what we can achieve together in 2026.
