Hvorfor er genbrug af elektronikaffald vigtigt for os?

We want to reduce the ewaste sector as it is one of the fastest growing waste streams globally. If the ewaste is not handled correctly it might end up in third world countries doing harm to the local biodiversity and human health. At Contour Design, we have partered with Elretur a non-profit organisation handeling Ewaste in Denmark and EU.

Hvad gør man med forældede produkter, der måske stadig virker?

Remember your old phone in the drawer? Yes? Well, keeping old technology can be a part of the e-waste problem. If devices are no longer working or the technology is obsolete it should be turned in for recycling so it can become new technology fitting to the features of the future. Our RollerMouse and SliderMouse pro is made from old technology such as Priner frames, Air Conditinor cases and Printer housings. This means that we have achived minimum 60% recycled content based on the total product weight.

Hvorfor skal du hjælpe os med at genbruge vores produkter?

Genbrug bevarer de naturressourcer og den energi, der bruges til at producere de nye materialer. Det understøtter både den globale og lokale cirkulære økonomi gennem upstream- og downstreampatruljer af materialer og komponenter.

Gamle batterier?

Most Contour Products contain rechargeble batteries, which means  that single use batteries are not to be changed everytime they run out of power. If you have a Contour products using non rechargeble batteries (e.g., AAA) then make sure that the batteries are disposed at your nearest recycling center at your conveniance. You can find the nearest recycling center by contacting your municipality.

Hvad skal man aflevere til genbrug af e-affald?

Du skal aflevere produktet til genbrug, hvis det er mærket med en overstreget affaldsspand på hjul, hvilket betyder, at det ikke er egnet til forbrænding eller deponering.
